Netanyahu faces corruption trial

 



Benjamin Netanyahu has arrived at a Tel Aviv courthouse to take the stand for the first time in a long-running corruption trial.  He has pleaded not guilty to the charges of bribery, fraud and breach of public trust in three separate cases.

One case revolves around him receiving a "supply line" of cigars and champagne from billionaire associates.

The court said he must testify three times in a week, despite the war in Gaza and possible new threats posed by wider tensions in the Middle East, including in neighbouring Syria.
