The Knesset is expected to discuss the Israeli occupation, a bill introduced by MP Yitzhak Kroizer of the party "Otzma Yehudit" (Jewish Power), which would allow the imprisonment of Palestinian minors aged 12 years.

MK Kroizer calls for the age of detention to be reduced from 14 to 12 years instead of being sent to "rehabilitation institutions.” This follows allegations that they have carried out aggressive operations to create a state of deterrence.
