During Arnon Milchan’s testimony in Brighton, UK, State Attorney Liat Ben Ari suddenly complains about the behavior of Sara Netanyahu, who is the room with the witness as his testimony is being broadcast to the Jerusalem District Court.
“Sara Netanyahu is here in the room. She is making eye contact with the witness the whole time. I want to make clear that it is forbidden to make faces to the witness, and it is forbidden to hint to him anything,” insists Ben Ari angrily.
Netanyahu’s defense attorney Amit Hadad objects vehemently to Ben Ari’s complaint and insists there is no prohibition against making eye contact with a witness.
The two attorneys engage in a hostile verbal exchange during which movie mogul Milchan chuckles, “This could be movie, maybe a TV show,” promising jovially to look at the ceiling instead of toward Sara Netanyahu.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
