Thousands of Israelis protest against minister's dismissal
The Straits Times
|November 07, 2024
Thousands of Israelis protested against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's dismissal of his defence minister, demanding the government do everything in its power to bring home hostages held in Gaza.
-
The demonstration erupted after Mr. Netanyahu's office announced the sacking of Mr. Yoav Gallant on Nov. 5 following public differences over the war with Hamas.
Mr. Netanyahu and Mr. Gallant have frequently clashed over Israel's retaliatory military offensive against Hamas following the Palestinian militant group's deadly attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
"Over the past few months... trust has eroded. In light of this, I decided today to end the term of the defence minister," Mr. Netanyahu's office said, adding that Foreign Minister Israel Katz would take his place.
Mr. Gideon Saar, a minister without a portfolio, was appointed to replace Mr. Katz.
