The hearing of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's much-discussed corruption trial is set to resume. The court has decided to reopen the case after lifting the state of emergency.
The country's court spokesman said that the hearing will resume next Sunday. Earlier, the judicial proceedings were temporarily suspended due to the state of emergency declared in the context of the conflict with Iran.
A statement said that the judiciary is returning to normal after the lifting of the state of emergency and the case will be heard regularly. According to the court's decision, the case will be heard four days a week from Sunday to Wednesday.
This long-running corruption case is having a major impact on Israeli politics. According to analysts, the progress of the case has become very important for Benjamin Netanyahu's political future.
Meanwhile, there are indications that there is no possibility of any pardon from the president at this time, which has created new pressure for Netanyahu.
