Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has dissolved his war cabinet, after being pressured to add members.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has dissolved the country’s war cabinet, following the withdrawal of his principal rival, Benny Gantz.
The six-member war cabinet will now be replaced by a “kitchen cabinet”, which Netanyahu will be able to consult for advice on the war on Gaza.
Netanyahu had been under pressure from far-right ministers within his coalition cabinet who wanted to join the war cabinet, which could have triggered a further lurch to the extreme right of Israeli politics.
The war cabinet was formed on October 11 after Israel declared war on Gaza in response to a Hamas-led attack on October 7.
The cabinet was set up as a smaller body within the security cabinet, which was part of the wider coalition cabinet.
