Tel Aviv, Israel — March 2026 — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared in court as proceedings resumed in his long-running corruption trial, where he faces charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust.
The hearings, held at the Tel Aviv District Court, mark the continuation of cross-examination in cases that have been ongoing since 2020.
Prosecutors allege Netanyahu exchanged political favors for gifts and favorable media coverage in three separate cases, including the high-profile “Case 4000.” Netanyahu denies all allegations, calling the charges politically motivated.
Recent sessions focus on detailed questioning by prosecutors, with footage circulating online showing Netanyahu being examined in court during the resumed hearings.
The trial, repeatedly delayed due to political and security developments, remains one of the most significant legal cases in Israel’s history. Netanyahu is the first sitting Israeli prime minister to stand trial while in office, underscoring the case’s political and constitutional implications.
