JERUSALEM: Israel’s parliament approved a bill on Monday that would allow the execution of Palestinians convicted on terror charges for deadly attacks, a move that has been criticized as discriminatory and immediately drew a court challenge.

There was one abstention and the rest of the lawmakers were not present.
