Abstract
When the Israeli Knesset voted to approve the Death Penalty for Terrorists Bill on 30 March 2026, it made irreversible through state-administered killing what the International Court of Justice (ICJ) had found unlawful. In its Advisory Opinion of 19 July 2024 (AO) on the Legal Consequences arising from the Policies and Practices of Israel in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT), including East Jerusalem, the ICJ identified military courts operating on ethnic lines to maintain racial separation. The Death Penalty for Terrorists Law (unofficial translation) now makes that racially segregated court system administer execution.
