Wrapping up proceedings in the Jerusalem District Court today, the corruption trial of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is now heading for a recess of more than a month.

Hearings in the trial, which has been going on for more than three years, are slated to resume in early September.

Today, former Walla editor Yinon Magal — who later briefly became an MK and is now an anchor on Channel 14 — testified about attempted intervention in the site’s coverage by Netanyahu and other politicians.
