Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced yesterday the postponement of his judicial reform plan, saying he wants to seek a compromise on the controversial package with his political opponents.

The original plan was expected to give the parliament the power to overturn Supreme Court decisions.

The decision has been suspended until parliament returns from the Easter holiday and Israel Independence Day.
