SHAFAQNA- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced a delay to his controversial judicial reform.
The judicial overhaul, which would give the executive control over appointing judges to the Supreme Court and allow the government to override court rulings, has drawn mass protests for weeks. Israel’s leading labour union, Histadrut, has announced a general strike, with its head saying that Israel had marched “to the abyss”.
