Israel’s Supreme Court has struck down a key component of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s judicial overhaul, which could reignite tensions in the country.
The decision overturned a law that prevents judges from striking down government decisions they deem “unreasonable.”
This was part of a planned overhaul to curb the power of judges and strengthen democracy, but critics see it as a power grab by Netanyahu.
The court’s decision could affect national unity and the military’s readiness.
Netanyahu’s allies have grievances against the court, and the U.S. had previously urged him to seek broad consensus for the plans.
