ah, we start and israel, we are prime minister benjamin netanyahu has helped cross his talks with members of his coalition. local media say he's told the group, he will pause the controversial judicial overhaul. and announcements was expected in the past couple of hours. but that has been delayed, the proposed judicial changes have triggered weeks of protest. danielle, his far right coalition pon, being given, has urged him not to back down. on sunday netanyahu fired the defense minister for speaking out against the changes. but the pressure is mounting. the main labor union has shot down an international airport suspending all flights universities. kindergartens and shops are also closed. natasha and i'm joined us now live from wisc jerusalem, and natasha daniel, who was due to speak. that's being postponed. what's the latest? what are you hearing? a railey media is reporting that prime

minister netanyahu is expected to halt this mary controversial, judicial overhaul package. it is something that he has resisted doing for months, even as protestors like this have filled the streets across the country, voicing their opposition. but even as we wait for prime minister netanyahu to speak this morning, the only thing that we have heard from him thus far since he ousted his former defense minister, was a tweet. you said we must stand up strongly against the refusal. as we wait to hear from netanyahu to see what will happen next, we know that the constitution law and justice committee met this morning and went ahead and approved a law that would give the government absolute control over supreme court justices. so the issue is what happens next. there has been speculation as to who will become the next defense minister. now, former defense minister yo golan has not received

a formal dismissal letter. there is speculation that perhaps the prime minister netanyahu will assume that role he did just that when he was prime minister in 2018, he also assuming the role as defense minister right now we're near that connects it . and as you can see, lots of protesters are arriving from all sectors of society. the country is in a state of paralysis because of the strikes impacting the airport support banks, shopping malls, and schools. all people who say they believe this judicial overhaul will undermine democracy in yahoo has characterized the traditional overhaul as opposed to strengthening democracy and creating a balance on the courts. do euro vis a you had a magic strike, major protest there, destroyed across the country. mean, has it effect sleep been shut down there this morning? oh,

well there is an absolute state of paralysis. it's an escalation of the protest that we have been seeing that have wailed israel for months. so it appears that the ousting of the defense minister has only solidified the opposition to this judicial overhaul. now the conversation is starting to shift from hitting the pause button on this judicial overhaul to actually removing prime minister netanyahu a member of his governing coalition. and also the former defense minister avid or lieberman is saying that it's time for netanyahu to step down. another former prime minister, a who barrage is also echoing that sentiment. i heard some protests are saying, this is a who i'm seeing a lot of sign saying that netanyahu must go. but right now the big question is, what will netanyahu say when he does speak to the nation? after plunging the crisis into, sorry, punching the country into an even deeper crisis by removing the lot as defense

minister yesterday evening. and i thank you so much. that is natasha. good night for us and with jerusalem. lead spring in political analyst akiva alden. now he joins us from telephone even as we heard that it's likely that he in yahoo is going to hold the proposed legislation. i mean, does he have any other option but to do that seeing the strikes and the process that we're seeing on the streets right now? so hey, mike, it's the lesser of all other evils and there are a bunch of them. so 1st of all, i have to add that to the equation, the about his own private lawyer boys benson, who put an ultimatum to him that he doesn't stop. he will stop representing him in court. at this a lawyer, i was one of the most, the senior lawyers in israel. and if he would stop representing him, if any out is on his way, not down from the prime minister's office only,

but down to jail. and i can say to them, you know, would like to find a way to put back the 1st break in the wall of the cool down to coalition and going back gallant and take back his letter. since what he says is, this is only the 1st grade and the is building, his own house is falling apart on him. and now it's a matter of not only for a saving and savings the coalition, but he's getting now messages from his constituency, saying that for 3 months, you told us that due to those people who are taking to the streets are and looking at destroying the country. and know you are surrendering to them and there are already people who are organizing. i assume howard man,

the chairman of the judiciary committee that just passed a bill of changing the form of the committee that is pointing the judges. and that del calling today to demonstrate entirely against the answer reform demonstrate. so he knows that we're having to scales. and if i have to put my money, i believe that he will find a way out of it by freezing may be going to the president. and suggesting to form a committee, where's the opposition and gain some more time? we got time? yes. is it out of it? what, what, how likely is it that term the opposition will go along with that plan that we already had from a minister of finance that he would be willing to make this compromise

of freezing for a while now, you know, next week we are studying the long recess of the past over and he will say, well, i'm willing to, for the unity of the people to wait few weeks. his problem is with our bank leo, who is a loose cannon in this government. and maybe he will have to give up on his partnership in the coalition and stay was 60 or 61 of those in the class. it for it until maybe he will try if they find a compromise. nathan, you know, as a career interest to bring in a partner from the center center center, right, like guns and lobbied because he's getting messages from washington that is, well can not depend on get americans,

economic and diplomatic support. if this was lucian and the chaos will go on, i will have to leave it there, but i will be speaking to you throughout the day. i am sure, thank you very much. that is political endless to keep al, to for us from television. thank you. the public transport strike is underway in germany. it's the biggest walk out and 30 years in violent bust services, the ground to a halt causing massive disruptions for the morning commute. it's part of a long running wage. dispute unions, a deadlocked in negotiations with public transport employees. dominic cane has more from berlin. i'm standing in the main central station, the whole fun horse over my shoulder. you can see what would normally the arrivals for they call it what you would normally see. there is many, many different trains and numbers because that's well a long distance train can also regional commuter trains, would appear, bringing people to and from this patient there are none because all long distance
