Will Israeli President Isaac Herzog grant Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a presidential pardon for his corruption charges before June 1, 2026?

Context: On December 1, 2025, Netanyahu formally requested a pardon from President Herzog for charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust across three separate cases. This follows President Trump's November 2025 letter urging Herzog to grant the pardon. The pardon request is currently being reviewed by the Ministry of Justice's Pardons Department, which will provide its opinion to Herzog's office.

Resolution Criteria: This market resolves YES if President Herzog issues a full or conditional pardon to Netanyahu before June 1, 2026. It resolves NO if Herzog explicitly rejects the pardon request or if the deadline passes without a pardon being granted. Resolution will be determined by official statements from the Israeli President's office or Israeli government sources.
