Netanyahu’s Tuesday testimony promised to be a key moment in the long-running corruption trial of Israel’s longest-serving Prime Minister. Netanyahu, the first Israeli PM to take the stand as a criminal defendant, is defending himself against allegations of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust across three cases dating back to 2007. The charges center on claims that Netanyahu exchanged favors and gifts with media owners and businessman in Israel for sympathetic media coverage. The Tuesday session of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s corruption trial was canceled due to “extraordinary circumstances,” judges said on Monday. Last week Netanyahu promised defiantly to knock down corruption allegations against him in his long-running trial, where he became the first sitting Israeli leader to take the stand as a criminal defendant. Should Netanyahu be tried when Israel is at war ?
