TEHRAN, Apr. 10 (MNA) – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday he had decided to leave War Minister Yoav Gallant in place given the escalating security crisis, reversing course over an earlier decision to fire the minister.

Media reported Netanyahu as saying on Monday afternoon that the two had resolved their disagreement over Gallant’s public call last month for a halt to the government’s bitterly divisive judicial overhaul plan, which Gallant said had become a threat to Israeli rgime’s security.
