Rights campaigners challenge Israel's death penalty law at London panel

Rights campaigners challenge Israel's death penalty law at London panel Human rights campaigners gathered in London on Friday for a panel titled "Together Against The Death Penalty", where speakers criticised Israel's death penalty law for Palestinians held in Israeli prisons. Participants argued that the legislation raises serious concerns about equality before the law and the treatment of Palestinians under Israel's legal system. "The Israeli death penalty law is a sign of weakness rather than strength," speakers at the event said.
