Reported 8 months ago
Israeli Prime Minister's spokesperson confirmed on Monday that Prime Minister Netanyahu has dissolved the War Cabinet. The War Cabinet, established last year to command the Gaza War, held significant influence. Last week, one of the three War Cabinet members, former Defense Minister Benny Gantz, announced his withdrawal, leading to Netanyahu's expected move. The dissolution of the War Cabinet signifies a shift in Israel's political landscape as the country continues an eight-month war in Gaza. Netanyahu will now hold smaller consultations with some government members to discuss sensitive war-related issues, such as the Security Cabinet opposing ceasefire talks and supporting the reoccupation of Gaza. Critiques argue that Netanyahu's War Cabinet was excessively influenced by extreme nationalist parties within the government, a claim Netanyahu denies by stating his focus on national interests.
