A former Benjamin Netanyahu spokesman is expected to deliver critical testimony in the former Israeli prime minister’s corruption trial, which revolves around accusations that Netanyahu committed fraud, breach of trust and accepted bribes

A one-time confidant to Benjamin Netanyahu began testifying against him Monday in the former Israeli prime minister’s corruption trial in Jerusalem.

His testimony was delayed by a week after Netanyahu’s defense attorneys requested time to review new evidence. The information presented last week alleged that Netanyahu’s wife, Sara, had accepted an expensive bracelet as a gift from two billionaire friends, Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan and Australian billionaire James Packer.

In the second case, Netanyahu is accused of orchestrating positive coverage in a major Israeli paper in exchange for promoting legislation that would have harmed the news outlet’s chief rival, a free pro-Netanyahu daily. The former prime minister long rejected calls to step down from the country’s leadership after he was indicted in 2019. He used the podium as prime minister to repeatedly lash out at law enforcement, the media and the courts for launching a “witch-hunt” against him.
