Daylight savings time in Israel came to an end overnight Motzei Shabbos at 2 a.m. when clocks moved back an hour to 1 a.m.
Israelis gain an extra hour of sleep which is especially welcome on Motzei Shabbos when many people go to sleep later than usual.
Daylight savings time will resume on Friday, March 25, 2022, a little over a week after Purim.

Should have standard time 365 days a year, which would lower down חילול שבת in summer
It’s stupid. Israel should remain on UTC+3 all year and not change their clocks every spring and fall; their latitudinal & longitudinal location is literally perfect for that time standard.
Also YWN, there is no “s” in Daylight Savings. It’s “Daylight Saving Time,” not “Daylight Savings Time.”
It’s closer to +2 than to +3.
