Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has officially asked President Isaac Herzog for a full pardon as he continues to face long-running corruption charges. In a dramatic political development, Netanyahu submitted a formal request seeking clemency in connection with three major cases involving allegations of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust — charges he firmly denies. Herzog’s office confirmed receiving the request and announced that legal experts and justice officials would review it before any decision is made. The president emphasized that such an “extraordinary request” carries major national and legal implications, and no timeline has been given for a final verdict.
