Netanyahu Faces Escalating Crisis Over Moves to Dismiss Key Officials

Israeli cabinet's no-confidence vote against the attorney general and Supreme Court's freeze on Shin Bet chief's dismissal intensify protests and fears of constitutional turmoil.

The Israeli cabinet passed a no-confidence vote against Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara, initiating a process for her potential dismissal.
The Supreme Court temporarily halted the dismissal of Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar, pending further hearings on the matter.
Mass protests have erupted across Israel, with demonstrators accusing Netanyahu of undermining democracy and consolidating power.
Critics link the dismissals to ongoing corruption investigations and efforts to weaken judicial checks on Netanyahu's government.
The resumption of military operations in Gaza, coupled with the handling of hostages, has further fueled public anger and political instability.
