Officers were reported to be interested in talking to Netanyahu about two ongoing investigations. According to reports in the Israeli media, Israel’s ambassador to the US, Ron Dermer, has been questioned recently as part of the same investigation. Netanyahu has consistently denied any wrongdoing in relation to these investigations and says he has been the target of a campaign by political opponents. Netanyahu is not a suspect in this case, although recent reports suggest police may ask him to give testimony. If the polls are right, and elections were to happen soon, Netanyahu would fall short of the number of seats needed to form a coalition.
