UN and human rights groups welcome Lebanon's abolition of the death penalty
On August 11, 2026, the Lebanese Parliament passed a law abolishing the death penalty and replacing it with life imprisonment with hard labor. Lebanon thus became the first Arab country to abolish this punishment. The United Nations and human rights organizations welcomed the move, considering it a historic victory for human rights and a reinforcement of dignity and the right to life. To date, Lebanon has not carried out any executions since 2004, although the death penalty was applied in serious crimes such as murder and terrorism. The law is expected to come into effect after it is signed by the President of the Republic.
