Katz sworn in as Israel's new defence minister following Gallant firing
Former Israeli foreign minister and longtime ally of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Israel Katz was sworn in as defence minister on Thursday. Netanyahu had abruptly fired Katz's predecessor, Yoav Gallant, on Tuesday over persistent disagreements during Israel's war in Gaza – a decision largely derided by Netanyahu's opposition.
