Despite the ongoing war in Gaza… Netanyahu is being retried on corruption charges
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is preparing to resume his trial sessions on corruption charges, Monday, December 4, 2023, after a hiatus that lasted more than two months, since the start of the war on the Gaza Strip, according to Israel Hayom newspaper.
The trial was scheduled to continue, but was halted after October 7, when Israeli courts were operating on an emergency basis in the wake of Hamas attack.
As the courts return to normal activity in December, Netanyahu’s trial continues despite the war.
The court session will begin on Monday with the testimony of investigator Eran Bushnik, who investigated the Netanyahu corruption case.
After Bushnik, the court will hear the testimony of investigator Dotan Malichi and Israeli Securities Authority investigator Lior Shpetz.
Prime Minister Netanyahu is on trial on criminal charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust.
