Defense Cabinet Out of Defense Drill
The diplomatic-security cabinet cancelled its participation in the "Turning Point 4" national defense drill Tuesday morning. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and the Forum of Seven were supposed to recede to Homefront Decree headquarters to practice working there in case of conflict.
The cancellation was caused by the Kadima filibuster against budget expansion and the vote which followed Tuesday morning, in which the expansion was approved.
