Netanyahu charged with corruption, says he won't resign
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday he would not resign despite being charged with bribery, fraud and breach of trust in a corruption scandal that he denounced as an "attempted coup".
The charges announced by Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit were the first of their kind against a serving prime minister and represented the gravest crisis in the political career of Israel's longest-serving leader.
