AL-QUDS (Dispatches) – Nearly 500 reserve pilots consider refraining from showing up for duty in protest of the Zionist regime’s plan for judicial overhaul, according to local media on Wednesday.
The move came one day after the Knesset (the occupying regime’s parliament) voted to pass a bill in its first reading to curb the powers of the supreme court. The bill, however, would require second and third readings in order to be an effective law. Reservists, who are a key part of the occupying regime’s army routine activities, have threatened not to serve if the regime’s plan to overhaul the judiciary is realized, The Times of Israel newspaper reported.
