Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu requested a stay of his hearing in his corruption trial, but the court rejected the request as insufficiently substantiated. His lawyer invoked the complicated international situation, but the judges concluded that the reasons given did not justify the postponement. Netanyahu is accused of receiving luxury goods and trying to influence the media to gain favorable coverage. US President Donald Trump has called for a mistrial, calling it a "witch hunt".
