AI Summary

short article 1 min

In March 2026, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir visited a gallows museum in Jerusalem. During the visit, he filmed himself advocating for the death penalty for individuals he described as "terrorists." Ben-Gvir is currently spearheading a campaign aimed at broadening the application of the death penalty within Israel. This initiative has drawn criticism from human rights organizations, who allege that the proposed expansion is discriminatory in nature. The location of the museum visit served as a backdrop for Ben-Gvir to publicly promote his stance on capital punishment.
