Israel to transition to standard time this weekend
Israel will end daylight saving time overnight between Saturday and Sunday. Clocks will be set back one hour, granting residents an additional hour of sleep.
Israel is scheduled to transition from daylight saving time to standard time this coming weekend. The change will occur overnight between Saturday and Sunday, requiring residents to manually adjust their clocks back by one hour.
This shift marks the beginning of the standard time period, which is set to remain in effect until late March 2027. The primary practical result of this adjustment is that the sun will rise and set an hour earlier than it did during the daylight saving period. While the adjustment is a routine administrative procedure in Israel, it serves as the official end of the summer clock cycle. No significant public opposition or controversy has been reported regarding this year's transition.
