Israel passes law protecting PM Netanyahu from removal amid protests and judicial changes.

Israel has passed a new law that limits the circumstances under which a prime minister can be removed from office. The law requires a two-thirds majority in parliament to remove a prime minister due to incapacity or misconduct, and a simple majority to remove a prime minister due to a criminal conviction. The law has been criticized by opposition parties as an attempt to protect Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is currently facing corruption charges.
