Government spokesperson Meyer stated that while the decision rests with Israel, there are fundamental reservations about the proposed legislation. This follows a joint statement from the foreign ministers of Germany, France, Italy, and the UK. The Israeli parliament is set to vote on two bills that would allow for the death penalty for Palestinians accused of terrorism, with a shift from a unanimous to a simple majority required for sentencing. Historically, Israel has executed only one individual under its death penalty law, Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann, in 1962.
