Differences between Netanyahu and Gallant
In fact, during the ongoing war in Gaza, differences between Netanyahu and Defense Minister Gallant have arisen several times. However, Prime Minister Netanyahu stopped short of dismissing him. When Netanyahu tried to fire Gallant in March last year, there were protests in the country against his move. Prime Minister Netanyahu announced his decision late Tuesday night.
