Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption trial is set to resume on Sunday at the Jerusalem District Court after being paused due to emergency restrictions during the conflict with Iran. The court confirmed the resumption following the lifting of these restrictions, which were implemented to ensure public safety. The decision to resume court business came after the military's Home Front Command approved a broad reopening across much of the country following a temporary truce between the United States and Iran. Sunday's hearing is scheduled to include testimony from a defense witness. Netanyahu faces charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust in the ongoing trial.
