Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's testimony pushed to Wednesday

The judges presiding over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption trial accepted late Monday night a request by his defense team to push his scheduled Tuesday testimony to Wednesday. 

The reason for the request was so that Chief Attorney Amit Hadad would be free to represent Jonathan Urich, a close adviser of the prime minister. 

Urich was held for questioning on Monday, as suspicions of alleged connections between Urich and Qatar grew stronger.
