NextImg:Daily Briefing Nov. 6: Day 397 – PM fires defense minister Gallant on US election day

Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world.

US bureau chief Jacob Magid and political correspondent Tal Schneider join host Jessica Steinberg for today’s episode.

Schneider discusses Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s unexpected Tuesday evening dismissal of Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, during the US elections. She examines the presumed political reasons for the dismissal, given Gallant’s support for an ultra-Orthodox draft, an issue that has shaken the government coalition.

Magid looks at the US administration’s reactions to the dismissal, which came as a surprise. The initial US reaction was measured, while Magid’s follow-up interview with a US official conveyed the administration’s dismay and the belief that the prime minister is looking out for his own political survival.

Schneider talks about her conversations with Jewish voters in Philadelphia prior to Election Day, most of them Democrats, while Magid reports from Dearborn, Michigan, where many Arab voters appeared to be voting for Trump because of their disappointment with US President Joe Biden regarding the war in Gaza.
