Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's wife Sara is expected to stay in Miami during the prime minister's planned testimony at the Jerusalem District Court.
Journalist Uri Misgav first published the news of Sara’s trip. Sara Netanyahu is scheduled to fly tonight for a roughly 20-day trip to Miami and return only in mid-December. The prime minister's son, Yair Netanyahu, has been staying in Miami since March 2023.
On Monday, the State Prosecutor's Office opposed PM Netanyahu's request to postpone the date of his testimony regarding Case 1000.
"Given the clear public interest in completing the trial as quickly as possible and preventing delays, the long preparation time given, and the absence of substantial reasons for changed circumstances since this decision, the prosecution opposes the request," the prosecution wrote in response to the District Court.
Netanyahu's testimony
Additionally, the prosecution addresses the manner of the prime minister's testimony regarding security arrangements.
"After the attorney-general clarified the matter with the Shin Bet, who had initial contact with the Courts Administration, it emerged that there are several possible frameworks that can be proposed to ensure the proper and continuous conduct of the trial, considering the prime minister's security needs," the prosecution added. This refers to secure courtrooms where the prime minister can testify.
According to Walla's investigation, these are the Tel Aviv District Court and the Supreme Court, not the Jerusalem District Court. The prosecution requested that the court administration complete the preparation of the courtroom where Netanyahu will testify by next Wednesday.
