Netanyahu Dismisses Defense Minister Gallant Amid Ongoing Conflicts

The decision has sparked widespread protests across Israel as the nation grapples with wars in Gaza and Lebanon.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited a 'crisis of trust' with Yoav Gallant, leading to his dismissal as defense minister.
Gallant's pragmatic approach to the war in Gaza, including advocating for a diplomatic solution, clashed with Netanyahu's hardline stance.
The firing has ignited protests across Israel, with citizens blocking roads and demonstrating in cities like Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
Netanyahu's decision comes as Israel faces military actions in Gaza, Lebanon, and tensions with Iranian-backed groups across the region.
Israel Katz, a loyalist of Netanyahu, has been appointed as the new defense minister while Gideon Saar takes over as foreign minister.
