Israeli lawmakers advance bill on death penalty for 'terrorists'
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
Jerusalem - Egypt Today
Israel's parliament on Wednesday gave preliminary approval to a bill making it easier for "terrorists" to be sentenced to death after a push by right-wing politicians for the deeply controversial legislation.
The bill, approved 52-49, would make it easier for military courts to sentence those convicted of "terrorist" crimes to death. Israel has not carried out any executions since 1962.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu voted in favour of the legislation. It requires three more votes in parliament to become law
