2 6 Palestinians take part in a protest against the execution of the Israeli death penalty law for Palestinians convicted of lethal attacks, in Ramallah in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, March 31, 2026. "The Spanish government condemns the death penalty against Palestinians" recently approved by Israel’s parliament, he wrote on X. “The commitments undertaken, especially with the resolutions voted on at the United Nations, for a moratorium on the death penalty cannot be disregarded,” Tajani wrote on X. The law applies to West Bank military courts, which try only Palestinians, making the death penalty the default sentence in such cases. The bill was passed late Monday in Israel’s parliament and will come into force next month if not delayed by court proceedings.
