The IDF announced the death of soldier Sgt. Yisrael Rosenfeld in Gaza, while Netanyahu's corruption trial was canceled.

One of the judges in the trial of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has suggested a non-binding "mediation" process to resolve the case, which began three years ago and is unlikely to end before 2028-2029. The judge has asked the state prosecution and defense teams to consider the idea, which could potentially lead to a plea bargain. Lawyers for Netanyahu, who is facing one count of bribery and three counts of fraud and breach of trust, did not rule out the idea. The attorney general will need to decide if she wants to pursue this option in the next few days.
