 Netanyahu requests pardon amid ongoing corruption trial

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally requested a pardon from President Isaac Herzog to halt his ongoing corruption trial, a move that has reignited political tensions in the country. Netanyahu, the only sitting prime minister in Israeli history to face trial, is accused of fraud, breach of trust, and accepting bribes in three separate cases involving alleged exchanges of favors with wealthy political supporters. He has denied all charges, describing the trial as a politically motivated campaign orchestrated by the media, police, and judiciary.

The prime minister’s office said the pardon request was submitted to the legal department of the president’s office, which described it as “extraordinary” with “significant implications.” Netanyahu argued that the trial, which requires him to appear in court multiple times a week, hampers his ability to govern and deepens divisions in Israeli society. The request follows recent calls from U.S. President Donald Trump urging Israel to grant a pardon. Legal experts have noted that the pardon cannot halt the trial, and opposition leaders, including Yair Lapid, condemned the move, insisting that a pardon should require an admission of guilt, remorse, and immediate withdrawal from political life.
