JERUSALEM (Reuters) – Israel’s Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday to block the inclusion in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet of a minister whose appointment had been challenged due to a recent criminal conviction.

The ruling on Shas party leader Aryeh Deri looked likely to shake Netanyahu’s coalition government and intensify already high-running tensions between his cabinet and Israel’s Supreme Court over a contentious judicial reform plan.
