Israel to Switch to Winter Time October 25, 2026

The story · English

Israel will transition to winter time on Saturday night, October 24-25, 2026. At 2:00 AM, clocks will be set back one hour to 1:00 AM, effectively granting an extra hour of sleep.

The practice of changing clocks stems from a 1784 proposal by Benjamin Franklin, then U.S. ambassador to France, aimed at conserving candle wax by aligning waking hours with sunrise. Despite its historical origins, the tradition of seasonal time changes faces criticism globally as outdated and irrelevant, leading some countries to abandon the practice.

In Israel, the switch to winter time is regulated by a 2013 law mandating the change on the last Sunday of October. The country will revert to daylight saving time on Friday, March 26, 2027.
