The deal between Gideon Saar's New Right Knesset faction and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has been finalized, according to Channel 12 reporter Amit Segal.
According to the terms of the deal, Saar will become Foreign Minister, replacing Israel Katz, who himself has replaced Yoav Gallant as Defense Minister after being fired by Netanyahu.
Meanwhile, MK Sharen Haskel will be made Deputy Foreign Minister, while MK Zeev Elkin will be a cabinet member and involved in planning for the "day after" the war ends in the Gaza Strip.
All members of the New Right will have freedom to vote as they wish on all matters related to the controversial legal system reform, which the coalition tried but largely failed to pass in its first six months.
