Israeli Minister Resigns After Row With Netanyahu

Israeli Defence Minister Moshe Yaalon has resigned after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly offered his post to Avigdor Lieberman.

"I told the prime minister this morning that due to his conduct in recent developments, and in light of my lack of trust in him, I am resigning from the government and Knesset [Israeli parliament] and taking a break from political life," the former armed forces chief of staff said on social media on Friday.
