Ynet: Netanyahu fires senior ministers Lapid, Livni

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided Tuesday to fire Yesh Atid leader Finance Minister Yair Lapid and Hatnua leader Justice Minister Tzipi Livni.

Netanyahu instructed Cabinet Secretary Avichai Mandelblit on Tuesday evening to issue termination letters to the two senior ministers, citing constant criticism aimed at him and his government from both Livni and Lapid.

“In recent weeks, including the last 24 hours, Ministers Lapid and Livni harshly attacked the government I’m heading. I won’t tolerate any more opposition within the government, I won’t tolerate ministers attacking from within the government the government’s policies and its leader,” Netanyahu said.

In short: Israeli government is going to be dissolved, and the country will be heading to elections real soon
