The Israeli government has approved an extension of the "Special Status in the Home Front" nationwide until November 3, 2026. The decision was made through a telephone poll of ministers on Thursday.

This extension is part of Israel's long-term security preparations and comes after the special status was initially declared at the start of the current conflict. The new expiration date is set after the next general elections, reflecting ongoing security assessments.

The special status grants authorities certain emergency powers and measures aimed at protecting the civilian population in the rear areas of the country.
