Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally requested a pardon from President Isaac Herzog as his corruption trial continues. The request comes after a letter from Donald Trump urging the Israeli president to grant a full pardon, citing Netanyahu's leadership and the need for his focus on national matters. Netanyahu, who has denied all charges of bribery and fraud, has been on trial since 2020. The outcome of the pardon request and the ongoing trial remains uncertain.
