Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s close associates are deciding whether or not Defence Minister Yoav Gallant should be fired in the coming months.
According to a report by Israel’s Chanel 12 news, the aids believe Gallant has become too independent and is no longer following Netanyahu’s positions. They also believe he has been leaking to the media.
The report claims associates are weighing firing Gallant during the Knesset’s upcoming summer recess, to avoid the possibility of it triggering elections.
