Netanyahu's Lawyer Opposes Court Proposal to Hold Five-Day Weekly Trial Sessions
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared in court on Monday for a hearing regarding the court's request to accelerate the defense testimony phase in the so-called 'thousands cases' by holding trial sessions five days a week. Netanyahu's defense attorney, Amit Hadad, opposed this proposal during the hearing, stating that no trial has ever been conducted five days a week except for the Eichmann trial. The judges aim to expedite the defense testimonies to complete them before the retirement of the presiding judge, Rivka Friedman-Feldman, who is expected to retire in March 2028. The hearing took place at the Tel Aviv District Court, where Netanyahu's trial is ongoing.
