Netanyahu testimony in corruption trial on Wednesday canceled for 'security reason'

A scheduled court hearing for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's testimony in his ongoing corruption trial was canceled due to an unspecified security reason. The cancellation followed a request from Netanyahu's lawyers, who submitted confidential information to the Jerusalem District Court. The prosecution did not oppose the cancellation after reviewing the document. Netanyahu, who faces multiple charges including bribery and fraud, has repeatedly sought adjustments to the trial schedule, citing state affairs and health concerns. Despite efforts to speed up proceedings, frequent postponements have slowed the trial, which is expected to continue for several years. Netanyahu maintains his innocence and has rejected calls for a pardon that would require an admission of guilt.
