Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant are slated to meet this evening, according to several Hebrew media reports.
The pair will sit down as growing numbers of IDF reservists are saying they will refuse to turn up for service in protest against the government’s plans to radically overhaul the judicial system. Earlier this evening, Gallant said the situation was serious and “requires us to talk, and quickly.”
