- Israel Pressure Grows on Netanyahu After Sacking Defense Minister
After one of the most dramatic days in the history of Israel and the beginning of a general strike agreed in an unprecedented way by the union and the company, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced the postponement of the judicial reform plan that has shaken for thirteen weeks a country split in two.
Netanyahu's decision to dismiss Defense Minister Yoav Galant on Sunday for asking for the pause he himself declared today sparked such widespread protests that he is forced to freeze the controversial bill that would weaken the judiciary before the government. The goal now is to achieve a broader consensus to approve it in the next parliamentary period that begins on April 31 and ends at the end of July.
