Yet they were, in the court's view, civilians participating directly in hostilities, which would mean they lose their immunity.
The Supreme Court of Israel, in response to a suit on the practice, mainly regarded actions in the Palestinian Territories, ruled on 14 December 2006 that such actions took place in an 'international armed conflict' but that the "terrorists", as civilians, lacked combatant status under international law. There is no clear definition of "targeted killing" under international law. In 2006 "focused lethality munitions", missiles with intense but highly localized explosives were introduced to this end, and in November a legal committee was set up to rule on assassinations. In response to protests over the number of civilians killed in targeting operations, and the refusal of a number of pilots to engage in such missions in 2003, Israel set up groups to minimize collateral damage in 2003 to establish acceptable levels of damage to bystanders. It includes attempts on notable persons who were reported to have been specifically targeted by the various Israeli security, intelligence and law enforcement agencies.Īccording to Eyal Weizman, "targeted assassinations have become the most significant and frequent form of Israeli military attack", and serve not only to contain terror but as a "political tool" to control Palestinian territories Israel has otherwise withdrawn from. *Applications will only be accepted during the specified application period dates.The following is a list of alleged and confirmed assassinations reported to have been conducted by the State of Israel.
