Israel political crisis
The Israeli prime minister has fired the regime's minister for military affairs just a day after the latter spoke out against Benjamin Netanyahu’s planned judicial reforms. According to an Israeli cabinet official, Netanyahu summoned Yoav Gallant on Sunday to tell the minister he didn’t have any faith in him anymore. On Saturday, Gallant called for a pause in the controversial judicial legislation for a month, citing the turmoil in the ranks of the military over the reforms. Israeli officials have reacted to the dismissal. Opposition leader Yair Lapid said Gallant’s sacking was a new low for the regime. Head of Israel's largest labor union said he was astonished by Netanyahu’s decision. Israel’s Consul-General in New York resigned his post, saying he could no longer serve Netanyahu’s cabinet. Israeli opposition leaders in the Knesset said Netanyahu has crossed a red line by dismissing Gallant. The reactions came as tens of thousands of Israelis gathered for the 12th consecutive week to protest against the controversial judicial overhaul plan proposed by the regime’s hard-right cabinet.

Foreign ministers of Iran and Saudi Arabia have explored ways for promoting constructive relations between the two countries in their latest phone call.

They agreed to re-open their diplomatic missions within two months after signing the deal.
