Netanyahu dismisses war cabinet
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has dissolved the six-member war cabinet, an Israeli official said on June 17th, in a widely expected move that came after the departure from government of the centrist former general Benny Gantz, according to Reuters.
Netanyahu is now expected to hold consultations about the Gaza war with a small group of ministers, including Defence Minister Yoav Gallant and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer who had been in the war cabinet.
