Дата публикации: 12-08-2026 15:24:50

Lebanon’s parliament voted on Tuesday to abolish the death penalty, making the country the first in the Middle East to do so. Lebanon has not carried out an execution since 2004, but death sentences have continued to be handed down, with the latest issued on Monday. Amnesty International says at least 85 people were still on death row as of January this year. Capital punishment in Lebanon has typically applied to serious crimes including murder, terrorism and espionage. France 24 correspondent Renée Davis reports the latest from Beirut.
