Sharon Gal, Knesset member for the right-wing Yisrael Beiteinu party, is scheduled to present a new bill to the Knesset on Sunday that would allow the execution of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails.

According to a report broadcast on the second Hebrew channel on Thursday, the proposed law raises many disagreements in the Israeli political arena.

The channel quoted Naftali Bennett, the leader of the Jewish Home Party, as saying that all the members of the parliamentary blocs would support the proposed law.
