Ronen Bar, the head of Israel’s Shin Bet security service, is set to resign in May.
Last month, Netanyahu chose to dismiss Bar over what the prime minister described as “ongoing distrust” in the wake of the events of 7 October.
But the dismissal led to large anti-government protests, with demonstrators accusing Netanyahu of undermining democracy.
Last week, the Supreme Court blocked Bar’s dismissal.
However, Israel’s Channel 12 reported on Saturday that Bar will step down in the middle of next month.
