Local Time in Palestine

Palestine time is 2 hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT+2). Palestine, like many other countries, implements Daylight Savings Time (DST), whereby clocks are advanced by one hour during the summer months. Clocks go forward one hour at the beginning of Spring, and they are turned back one hour back in the Autumn.

Palestine is seven hours ahead of Washington D.C. (Eastern Standard Time) in the USA. The same time difference holds true for Australia. In Europe time differences range between one to two hours; for example, the United Kingdom is two hours ahead of Palestine, and Germany, Italy, Spain, and France are one hour ahead.

The difference between Asia and Palestine is a greater. For example, China and Malaysia are five hours ahead of Palestine, whereas there is a three-hour time difference from Kazakhstan. India is two and one-half hours ahead of Palestine’s time. There are countries that have no time difference with Palestine; for example, countries such as Russia, Finland, Greece, Cyprus, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Syria all share the identical time with Palestine.

Interestingly there are time differences among cities in Palestine, the answer is yes but it is not that big difference, it is all about some minutes more or less since Palestine is small in terms of the area.
