Part 2/8:
At the heart of Netanyahu's legal troubles are three key accusations: bribery, breach of trust, and fraud. The most serious of these pertains to what is known as Case 4000, which alleges that he entered into a quid pro quo arrangement. According to the accusations, Netanyahu offered regulatory benefits to a powerful media tycoon in exchange for more favorable public coverage.
Additionally, Netanyahu is accused of accepting extravagant gifts—including luxurious cigars, fine wine, and jewelry—amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Throughout his testimony, he vigorously denied all charges and characterized them as baseless.
