Israel's far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has unveiled plans for a new death-row facility featuring gallows and viewing booths, turning the proposed execution of Palestinian prisoners into a central political message.
Ben-Gvir's office announced Tuesday that an execution site is being built inside a newly completed death-row wing at a prison in central Israel. The facility is intended for prisoners sentenced to death under Israel's newly passed Death Penalty for Terrorists Law. Its exact location has not been disclosed.
