Court allows Netanyahu to head to Kirya mid-hearing for urgent security-related call

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has started his day of cross-examination in his corruption trial at the Tel Aviv District Court building.

However, despite the court having rejected his request to delay the start of the hearing by three hours, it accepts Netanyahu’s declaration that he will have to head off to the Kirya military headquarters at 10:30 a.m. for an urgent security-related call.

Netanyahu says he doesn’t know how long the call will take. He is afterward supposed to return to the courtroom.
