Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dismissed Defense Minister Yoav Galant.

Axar.az reports that this was stated in the statement issued by the office of the Prime Minister of Israel.

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided tonight to remove Defense Minister Yoav Galant from his post," the report said.

It should be noted that Galant made a special statement on the evening of March 25 and asked to stop the judicial reforms that caused numerous protests in the country. He warned that the division in society is already penetrating the ranks of the Israeli army, which poses a threat to national security.
