Israelis turned their clocks back an hour overnight Saturday, marking an end to daylight saving time in 2024.

Clocks were officially turned back at 2 a.m. early on Sunday morning.

They will be turned forward again on March 28, 2025.

In 2013, Israeli lawmakers passed legislation extending daylight saving time from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October.

The United States will switch back clocks on Nov. 3.

“Disturbingly, this occurred during a period of increasing anti-Asian American and Pacific Islanders and antisemitic hate and violence,” stated the office of Rob Bonta, the California attorney general.
“The fact that the filed charges do not include a hate crime enhancement does not mean the reported language or conduct was acceptable,” the department said.
“We will not allow the Iranian government to increase its oil revenue for the purpose of reconstituting its armed forces and military capabilities,” the U.S. treasury secretary said.
