Breaking news: Israeli President Netanyahu dissolved the war cabinet. Reuters, which announced the news, based the news on an Israeli official.
EARLY ELECTION CALL WAS MADE
The move was expected after War Cabinet member Benny Gantz resigned from the emergency government last week. Gantz had called for early elections to Netanyahu “as soon as possible”.
EİSENKOT RESIGNED FROM THE WAR CABINET
Following this, former Chief of General Staff Gadi Eisenkot also resigned from the War Cabinet by submitting his resignation letter to Netanyahu.
Netanyahu, who was caught between the moderate figures in his government and the extreme rightists regarding the US ceasefire and prisoner exchange plan in Gaza, said, after the successive resignations, “Israel is fighting an existential war on many fronts. Now is not the time to abandon this, it is time to unite forces.”
