Israeli police recommend the indictment of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for bribery charges in two corruption cases, according to local news outlets.
In Case 1000, Netanyahu is suspected of accepting more than $100,000 in gifts from wealthy benefactors in exchange for promoting their interests, and in Case 2000, Netanyahu allegedly tried to broker an arrangement that would garner positive news coverage for him in Israel's second largest newspaper, Yedioth Ahronoth, in exchange for sabotaging its free rival, Israel Hayom, Haaretz reports. Yedioth Ahronoth publisher Arnon Mozes and Israeli-bred Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan, who allegedly provided Netanyahu with gifts, will also be charged.
