13:34Now PlayingIsrael has passed a law which will make the death penalty by hanging the default punishment for West Bank Palestinians convicted of murdering Israelis in "acts of terror".
Many groups have been quick to condemn the legislation, including the UK, Germany, France and Italy, which said in a joint declaration that it would “significantly expand the possibilities for imposing the death penalty”.
The allies called the law "de facto discriminatory" and said that by passing it, "Israel risks undermining its commitments to democratic principles".
The four nations added the death penalty "is an inhumane and degrading form of punishment without any deterrent effect", and that rejecting it "is a fundamental value that unites us".
Israeli entrepreneur Terry Newman joins Shelagh Fogarty to outline the law.
