Israel: Netanyahu, pictured here on October 19, dismisses Yoav Gallant, his defense minister, pillar of the war in Gaza
MIDDLE EAST – Is this the beginning of a new phase in the conflicts igniting the region? This Tuesday, November 5, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired his Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant. The latter was on the front line of operations carried out by the IDF in the Gaza Strip, but also in Lebanon and Syria, since the deadly attacks of October 7. “Trust” in Yoav Gallant “eroded” during the war in Gaza, says the head of government in particular.
In Gallant's place, Benjamin Netanyahu chose to place his current Minister of Foreign Affairs, Israel Katz. The latter is a supporter of Bibi, and has been particularly firm since the operations in Gaza, notably at the UN, against Antonio Guterres, the secretary general, whom he accused of “supporting terrorists”.
