The Democrats party, led by MK Yair Golan, will head a new Knesset committee to repeal judicial overhaul laws passed by Benjamin Netanyahu's previous government. The committee, set to begin work this week, will focus on reversing changes that weakened the attorney-general and altered judicial appointments. This move is part of a broader opposition effort to gain control of the Knesset agenda and potentially form a new government, following recent election results that showed a majority for the opposition bloc.
