The number of executions carried out across the world have reached a 10-year low, according to a new report from Amnesty International
The number of executions carried out across the world have reached a 10-year low, according to a new report from human rights organization Amnesty International.
At least 690 executions were carried out in 20 countries in 2018, which was a 31% decrease from 2017's total of 993 executions or more. The report is a moment of cautious optimism for human rights advocates who believe the death penalty to be a cruel and inhumane practice. However, along with the general decrease of executions, there are also points of concern.
