Benny Gantz Resigns from Israel's War Cabinet

Longtime Netanyahu Rival Departs amid Political Turmoil

Gantz's resignation comes after a long history of disagreements with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

Benny Gantz, a long-time rival of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has resigned from the country's war cabinet. The move is a significant blow to Netanyahu's government and comes amid a period of political turmoil in Israel.

Gantz, a former military chief of staff, has been a vocal critic of Netanyahu's policies. He has accused Netanyahu of mishandling the country's response to the COVID-19 pandemic and of failing to address the country's economic problems.

Gantz's resignation is likely to further destabilize Netanyahu's government, which is already facing a confidence vote in parliament. If Netanyahu loses the vote, he will be forced to resign as prime minister.

The political turmoil in Israel is a reflection of the country's deep divisions. The country is divided between those who support Netanyahu and those who believe he is unfit to lead.

It remains to be seen how Gantz's resignation will affect the political landscape in Israel. However, it is clear that the country is facing a period of uncertainty and that the future of Netanyahu's government is in doubt.
