Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has fired his Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
Netanyahu’s decision has nothing to do with military concerns, but with domestic politics.
His coalition is currently being rocked by controversy over a bill strongly supported by the United Torah Judaism party that would allow ultra-orthodox (referred to as Haredi) men who refuse to serve in the Israeli military to continue to receive childcare benefits.

Benjamin Netanyahu’s firing of Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has removed the one minor restraint on expanding Israel’s regional war against Iran and the axis of resistance. International pressure to stop Israel is needed now more than ever.Mitchell Plitnick (Mondoweiss)
