Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has disbanded Israel’s six-member war cabinet, a decision revealed at a political-security cabinet meeting on Sunday evening, according to reports on Monday. This move comes in the wake of Benny Gantz’s departure from the emergency government, a departure that has heightened the demands from Netanyahu’s far-right coalition partners for a new war cabinet.

The dissolution of the war cabinet marks a significant shift in Israel’s political landscape, particularly as the country faces ongoing military engagements. Gantz, a more moderate political figure, had been a stabilising force within the emergency government, his exit underscoring the growing ideological rift within the ruling coalition.
