On Nov. 30, Netanyahu requested a presidential pardon without admitting guilt or stepping down from political life.
Under the regime’s law, a pardon cannot be granted without an admission of guilt.
Netanyahu faces charges of corruption, bribery, and breach of trust in three cases, with indictments filed in November 2019. His trial began in 2020 and remains ongoing.
In addition to the corruption cases, Netanyahu has been wanted since 2024 by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza, where more than 72,000 people have been killed in a brutal assault since October 2023.
