This release was manually Accepted.
Reason: 5 consecutive rejected payloads, last accepted 6.4 days ago. All failures are sporadic Azure infrastructure flakes (etcd slow disk, API disruption timeouts, MonitorTest). Target payload has 8/10 blocking jobs passing. aws-ovn-upgrade-micro failed with image import timeout; azure-ovn-upgrade failed with MonitorTest but test suite classified all 5 failures as flakes. Pass rates 99.5-99.9% across runs. No code regression pattern. — https://redhat-internal.slack.com/archives/C0AMHBXQW9F/p1790688838411709
