Netanyahu Requests Delay in His Corruption Trial Testimony

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Israeli regime’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has asked to postpone giving testimony in his long-running corruption trial that was set to resume next week, his lawyer said in a court filing on Friday.

Netanyahu's trial was set to resume on Sunday, after Israel lifted a state of emergency imposed over its war of aggression against Iran following Wednesday's ceasefire announcement.

"Due to classified security ​and diplomatic reasons connected ... to the dramatic events that have taken ​place in Israel and throughout the West Asia in recent times, the prime minister will not be able to testify in the proceeding ​for at least the next two weeks," the filing to ​the Jerusalem (al-Quds) District Court said, Reuters reported.

It said that a sealed envelope detailing the classified ‌reasons ⁠was delivered to the court, which will rule once the prosecution submits its response.

Netanyahu, the first sitting Israeli prime minister to be charged with a crime, is facing charges of bribery, fraud ​and breach of ​trust brought in ⁠2019 after years of investigations.

His trial, which began in 2020 and could lead to jail terms, has been repeatedly delayed due to his "official commitments", with ⁠no end date in sight.
