Israeli President Isaac Herzog holds sole authority to grant presidential pardons under Israeli law, but the process requires review by the Justice Ministry and typically follows conviction rather than applying mid-trial. Netanyahu’s November 2025 request for clemency on longstanding bribery, fraud, and breach-of-trust charges remains under consideration without a formal grant as of August 2026. Herzog has repeatedly deferred action, instead directing parties toward renewed plea negotiations, while publicly rebuffing the pardon request at least temporarily. U.S. President Trump has applied repeated public pressure for immediate clemency to allow Netanyahu to focus on security matters including the Iran conflict, yet Herzog’s office has emphasized independent review free of external influence. Netanyahu has rejected any linkage between a pardon and resignation or admission of guilt. These procedural, institutional, and political constraints continue to shape trader assessments of near-term resolution.

The primary resolution source for whether the individual is pardoned or not will be official information from the Israeli government; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
