Former Netanyahu adviser testifies in submarine affair

A former adviser to Prime Minister Netanyahu, Shalom Shlomo, is giving testimony to police in connection with the so-called submarine affair, officials say.

Shlomo was an adviser to Netanyahu between 2006 and 2009, before Netanyahu started his second stint as prime minister. He has also worked for Jewish Home party leader Naftali Bennett.

Shlomo, like Netanyahu, is not currently a suspect in the affair, known as Case 3000, that authorities suspect involved bribery and other corruption surrounding the purchase of submarines and other naval vessels from Germany.
