On December 15, 1997, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the International Convention for the Suppression of Terrorist Bombings (Convention or Terrorist Bombing Convention). The Convention sets forth a broad regime of jurisdiction for international cooperation in connection with the unlawful and intentional use of explosives and other lethal devices, in, into or against various defined public places, with intent to kill or cause serious bodily injury or to cause extensive destruction of the defined public place. It will fill an important gap in international law by expanding the legal framework for states to cooperate in the investigation, prosecution and extradition of persons who engage in such international terrorism. While generally patterned after prior counterterrorism conventions, the Convention contains several important innovations.
