SUMMARY

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will testify in his corruption trial starting December 2, 2024, according to the Jerusalem District Court. Judges balanced the need for the prime minister’s preparation with public interest in the trial's progress. Netanyahu's attorney previously requested until March 2025 due to the ongoing war against Hamas, while the State Attorney's Office urged for earlier testimony.

Netanyahu faces multiple charges, including fraud and bribery across three cases. He has not yet taken the stand, even as proceedings approach the end of witness cross-examination.
