Netanyahu Testifies in Corruption Trial During Wartime Disruptions

The Israeli Prime Minister continues his historic court testimony while managing national security challenges from an ongoing conflict.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is testifying for the third time in his criminal trial, where he faces charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust across three cases.
This marks the first time a sitting Israeli prime minister has taken the stand as a criminal defendant, following years of investigations and legal proceedings.
The trial is complicated by the ongoing multi-front war, with rocket alerts briefly interrupting Monday's session in a secure underground courtroom in Tel Aviv.
Tuesday's session was canceled due to 'extraordinary circumstances,' reportedly linked to Netanyahu's national security responsibilities during the conflict.
Prosecutors expressed concerns over Netanyahu's ability to balance his courtroom obligations with his duties as prime minister, as he frequently received security-related updates during testimony.
