Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.

Zman Yisrael editor Biranit Goren and Knesset correspondent Carrie Keller-Lynn join host Amanda Borschel-Dan in today's episode.

After the Histadrut labor union teamed up with private sector leaders yesterday and deployed its so-called “nuclear option” of a general strike, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a speech calling for a delay in legislation until April 30. Goren analyzes the speech and the move's significance.

To maintain his coalition, Netanyahu promised Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir to establish a national guard. Keller-Lynn explains why this isn't a new promise.

Keller-Lynn shares the mood in Jerusalem at the Knesset -- inside and out.

Goren boils down the next steps towards talks, which are set to be held at the President's Residence. She also speaks to how, for the grassroots protest movement, there is no "pause."

Discussed articles include:

Netanyahu says he’s delaying overhaul to allow dialogue, but vows reform will happen

In first, tens of thousands rally to back overhaul; ministers promise it will pass
