Benjamin Netanyahu has dissolved the War Cabinet that unified the Israeli government after one of its key members quit the group last week.
that unified the Israel i government and directed the conflict in Gaza after one of its key members quit the group last week.
Gantz’s absence from the Government increases Netanyahu’s dependence on his ultranationalist allies, who oppose a ceasefire, which could pose an additional challenge to the already fragile negotiations to end the eight-month war in Gaza. Ceasefire talks failed as both groups have been reluctant to fully endorse a US-backed plan that would return hostages, clear the way for an end to the war and start a rebuilding effort in Gaza.
After Gantz’s departure, Israel’s ultranationalist national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, demanded inclusion in a renewed war Cabinet.Dissolving the War Cabinet could help keep Ben-Gvir at a distance, but it can not sideline him altogether.
