Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is declaring his innocence after local media reports said he could soon be indicted on corruption charges.

"I am sure that at the end of the day the competent legal bodies will come to one conclusion, to the simple truth: There is nothing," Netanyahu said in a video posted to social media in which he addressed the investigation.

A panel of police chiefs, including the general commissioner of Israel's police force, were in "unanimous agreement" that Netanyahu should be indicted for allegedly accepting bribes and receiving lavish gifts.  Their recommendation will be sent to Israeli Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit, who will determine whether sufficient evidence exists to prosecute the case.

There are two investigations focusing on Netanyahu:  The first revolves around whether Netanyahu and his wife Sara accepted lavish gifts such as expensive cigars and champagne from wealthy individuals including the Israeli-born Hollywood producer Arnon Milchan.  The second accuses the prime minister of striking a deal with a newspaper publisher for favorable coverage in return for harming a rival publication.  Police are also gearing up to open a third probe into whether close members of the prime minister's family illegally made money off of a multibillion-dollar submarine deal.

A new poll says 60 percent of Israelis want him to resign if police recommend an indictment.
