A number of cabinet changes are due soon as a result of the recent resignation of Environmental Protection Minister Avi Gabai from the Kulanu party over disagreements with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. Channel 10 Television reports Jerusalem Affairs and Heritage Minister Ze'ev Elkin (Likud) is expected to fill the post.
The Ministry of Economics will go to Yo'av Galant (Kulanu) but the ministry's Labor Office will be transferred to Welfare and Social Services Minister Haim Katz (Likud).
