Gallant urges halt to judicial overhaul over security concerns.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has called for the government to halt its judicial overhaul legislation, citing a "tangible danger" to state security. Gallant stressed that Israel was facing "great threats - both near and far," and that the growing rift in Israeli society was penetrating the IDF and security agencies, posing a clear, immediate, and tangible threat to the security of the state. The defense minister called for holding "a unifying national process with broad participation, a process that will strengthen the State of Israel and preserve the strength of the IDF."
