fired a defense minister who had called for delaying a controversial plan to limit the powers of the country’s Supreme Court. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said the “internal rift” created by the judicial reform proposal was “a clear, immediate, and tangible danger to the security of the state.” Gallant added, “I declare loudly and publicly, for the sake of Israel's security, for the sake of our sons and daughters — the legislative process should be stopped.
” Explaining the decision to fire Gallant, Netanyahu’s office said, “Minister Gallant did not coordinate his words with the Prime Minister in advance and thus sabotaged efforts to reach a solution.” The decision prompted condemnation from the reform plan’s opponents; on Sunday, opposition leader Yair Lapid called Netanyahu a “danger to the security of the State of Israel.
