The government approves Yamina MK Matan Kahana’s reappointment as religious affairs minister, after he gave up the post to resume his Knesset seat.
As the appointment requires Knesset approval, ministers also tap Kahana as deputy minister, which takes effect as soon as the government informs parliament.
