During the evening, Gallant met with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, and presented him with the impact of the legislative processes on the IDF and the security system. However, at the request of the Prime Minister, and in view of the statement that Netanyahu made later, the Minister of Defense rejected his statement. On Thursday, Netanyahu made a statement to the media at his office in
Jerusalem , this against the background of another day of protest against the legal revolution before his trip to London. Those around Netanyahu said that he planned his statement before Gallant announced that he would deliver his own statement. The Prime Minister also met with Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Education Minister Yoav Kish.
