On Thursday evening, Israeli Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara and the State Prosecutor ordered police to investigate Sara Netanyahu, wife of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, on suspicion of witness tampering and obstruction of justice.

Prime Minister Netanyahu has dismissed the allegations as false.
