Defense Minister Yoav Gallant cancels press conference following meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, after reportedly planning to publicly urge the government to stop the measure.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin says US Central Command forces retaliated with “precision airstrikes” against facilities in eastern Syria used by groups affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard.
Government ministers are simply unable to hold their tongues – and this is completely unacceptable behavior.
“We will ensure the basic rights of all Israeli citizens – Jews and non-Jews, secular and religious, women, the LGBTQ community, everyone without exception,” Netanyahu says as protests continue.
Aviad Hacohen and Yonatan Bassi urge Netanyahu in open letter to tap cabinet minister who would oversee initiative and renew expired contracts with state agencies. "We ask that you get fully engaged on this matter immediately," they write.
