ALL PROGRAMS CANCELED ON DOCTOR'S ADVICE
According to a statement from the Israeli Prime Minister's Office, Netanyahu is suffering from a respiratory infection. The statement noted that the respiratory infection does not pose a threat to Netanyahu and those around him, and it was recorded that the Israeli Prime Minister canceled his programs today and is resting at home on his doctor's advice.
ISRAELI PRESS CRITICIZED HARSHLY
According to the Israeli press, Netanyahu complained about his illness while giving testimony in a corruption case at the Tel Aviv District Court this morning and requested the cancellation of today's hearing. The hearing, which was expected to continue at 4:30 PM, was canceled after the court accepted the request.
"HE IS PUTTING ON A POLITICAL SHOW"
Netanyahu's cancellation of his programs today due to illness, after meeting with Israeli hostages released by Hamas yesterday, has led to criticism of "irresponsibility." According to a report by Yedioth Ahronoth, Netanyahu was criticized with the remark, "If he is sick, why did he bother to visit the hostages for a political show?"
The relatives of Israeli hostages in Gaza have notably continued their strong criticism of Netanyahu, who previously undermined all ceasefire negotiations. The Israeli Prime Minister has also been targeted by criticism from his far-right government partners due to the ceasefire and hostage exchange agreement in Gaza.
