The White House is concerned about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's decision to fire Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant, "especially in the middle of two wars and as Israel prepares to defend against a potential attack from Iran," a US official told Axios.
"We have real questions about the reasons for Gallant's firing and about what is driving the decision," the official said.
A former general, Gallant shaped the war on Gaza but fell out of favour with Netanyahu over the future of the war.
