## Resource

Israel’s government has just defied a Supreme Court order for the first time under Prime Minister Netanyahu, rejecting a ruling that mandates the continuation of the broadcast regulator despite claims it lacks quorum. The cabinet unanimously overturned the court’s decision, arguing it overstepped its authority — a move opposition leaders call the worst constitutional crisis in Israeli history, warning democracy is unraveling. Key ministers backing judicial reform insist the regulator’s rulings are invalid until legal membership rules are met, while President Herzog warns defiance of the courts harms national unity. Officials downplay the drama, framing it as a legal challenge, not disobedience. The fallout could impact major TV network approvals and loom large ahead of potential elections.
