Israel rescheduled daylight saving time
From this year on, Israelis will enjoy an extra hour of evening daylight until the end of October.
The Knesset, Israel's parliament, has passed the new daylight saving time (DST) law in its final readings.
The new law takes effect immediately, so daylight saving time will last about a month longer than before.
The new schedule: daylight saving time begins at 02:00 on the Friday before the last Sunday of March and ends at 02:00 on the last Sunday of October.[1]
Correction, 26 October 2026: The first sentence said "until the end of November". It should have said the end of October: summer time ends on the final Sunday of October.[2]
Update, 26 October 2026: The 2013 law is still in use: in 2026, summer time ran from Friday 27 March 2026 to Sunday 25 October 2026.[1][3] See also: Israel's 2011 plan to extend daylight saving time.
