The hearing for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s testimony in his criminal trial in the Tel Aviv District Court ends early, and the premier leaves the court.

Netanyahu received a sealed envelope earlier in the day and then requested from the judges that they end the hearing early, to which they agreed.

The IDF has issued evacuation warnings for Yemen’s Sanaa airport ahead of what appears to be a pending attack on the site, following the Houthi ballistic missile attack on Ben Gurion airport on Sunday.
