Israel's Channel 2 TV reported on Wenesday that Netanyahu accepted "favors" from businessmen in Israel and abroad. It said Netanyahu was the central suspect in a second investigation that also involves family members.

It said a criminal probe is expected next week. An opposition lawmaker is campaigning for Netanyahu to be investigated for corruption over suspicions that donors improperly transferred money for his personal use, as well as reports his personal attorney represented a German firm involved in a USD 1.5 billion sale of submarines to Israel.
