Israeli court rejects Netanyahu's request to postpone corruption trial testimony after Trump's call for cancellation.
An Israeli court on Friday (June 27, 2025) rejected Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's request to postpone giving testimony in his corruption trial, after U.S. President Donald Trump said the case should be cancelled.
Mr. Netanyahu's lawyer on Thursday (June 26, 2025) asked the court to excuse the leader from hearings over the next two weeks, saying he needed to concentrate on "security issues" after Israel's 12-day war with Iran.
