This follows a request from Netanyahu\u2019s attorney, Amit Hadad, to cancel upcoming hearings due to Netanyahu\u2019s recovery from surgery last week.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Judges: Efforts Should Be Made to Avoid Complete Cancellation of Hearing Days  <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Netanyahu was discharged from the hospital last Thursday with a medical recommendation for two weeks of rest at home. In the discharge letter, the doctors emphasized the need for full recovery before the prime minister resumes his activities. Based on this, Attorney Hadad requested that the court delay the originally scheduled defense hearings.  <\/p>\n<p>While the judges granted the request, they emphasized that efforts should be made to avoid a complete cancellation of hearing days. They requested an update from the parties by Tuesday on whether an alternative defense witness could testify during the hearings scheduled for next week.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Prosecution\u2019s Agreement  <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The prosecution agreed to the requested delay but added a condition: &#8220;Provided that the doctors\u2019 recommendations are fully implemented.&#8221; This likely refers to ensuring that Netanyahu remains in complete rest at home for the allotted recovery period.  <\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_12430\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12430\" style=\"width: 799px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/F241223RKPOOL08_pr.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"799\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/F241223RKPOOL08_pr.jpg 799w, https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/F241223RKPOOL08_pr-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/reganews.co.il\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/F241223RKPOOL08_pr-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 799px) 100vw, 799px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12430\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Netanyahu during his testimony in Case 4000 | Photo: Reuven Kastro\/POOL<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n<strong>A Break Amid a Critical Phase<\/strong>  <\/p>\n<p>The postponement comes during a critical phase in Netanyahu\u2019s trial, as key defense arguments in the Case 4000 corruption trial are being presented.
