Netanyahu postpones dismissal of Defense Minister Gallant amid security tensions.

TL;DR Summary
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has delayed the firing of Defence Minister Yoav Gallant due to ongoing security tensions and concerns over Iran's nuclear ambitions. Gallant had spoken out against the government's planned judicial overhaul, which sparked mass protests across Israel and raised concerns among Israel's allies. Netanyahu and his allies argue that the proposed judicial changes would restore balance between the judicial and executive branches, but critics say the amendments will remove checks and balances in Israel's democratic system. Netanyahu and Gallant are set to visit soldiers together in a sign of thaw.
