Netanyahu's Turmoil: Judicial Overhaul Suspended and Protests Erupt.

Israel's Defence Chief Yoav Gallant remains in office until further notice, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's decision to fire him was not followed up with a formal notification letter. Netanyahu's call for compromise talks with the opposition has stabilised the country's economy, but questions remain about his credibility, including within his own party. The proposed judicial overhaul has sparked nationwide protests, with critics saying it threatens the independence of the courts. Netanyahu, who is on trial on corruption charges, said the reforms balance out branches of government.
