Officials in the office of the opposition National Unity party leader Benny Gantz say that he has been holding talks with coalition MKs in the Likud and ultra-Orthodox parties, including with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

The talks have not been about the specifics of the judicial overhaul, but have been aimed at preventing fatal damage to democracy and civil war, and maintaining the security of the country and its economy, the official says.

Gantz informed them that halting the overhaul legislation was key to bringing this crisis to an end.
