Israel Fires Envoy Over Criticism of Judicial Overhaul Plan
Israel's antisemitism envoy, Noa Tishby, has been fired by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, possibly due to her criticism of its planned judicial overhaul. Tishby had written a column critical of the government's proposed legislation, calling it an attempted "coup." Netanyahu announced last week that he would pause the planned overhaul of the country's judiciary, which has divided the country and drawn weekly mass protests.
