Israel Hayom is a media organization founded on the belief that the Israeli public deserves better journalism—more balanced, more accurate, and more reliable. Journalism that speaks rather than shouts. Journalism that is trustworthy, objective, and matter-of-fact. A different kind of journalism, offered free of charge.
The first print edition was published on July 30, 2007, and in 2010 Israel Hayom became the Israeli newspaper with the highest weekday readership. The newspaper’s publisher is Dr. Miriam Adelson. Its Editor-in-Chief is Omar Lachmanovitch, and its founding editor is Amos Regev.
Israel Hayom’s Hebrew and English websites, as well as its Android and iOS applications, provide around-the-clock news coverage, exclusive content, breaking news and updates, analysis and commentary, video, podcasts, and live broadcasts.
The digital platforms of Israel Hayom include news and opinion channels covering culture and entertainment, lifestyle, technology, sports, business and consumer affairs, health, military affairs, food, Judaism, tourism, and automobiles.
In 2021, a new Hebrew-language website and mobile application were launched to provide users with a fast, up-to-date, secure, and convenient experience.
The content of the newspaper’s print edition is also available online through a daily digital edition and can be received via newsletter.
“The Israel Hayom Clique,” the publication’s exclusive benefits club, offers website users discounts and special promotions on products and services.

Brussels urges return to calm: "Only a political solution can put an end to the violence. Efforts by Egypt and the UN to calm the situation have the European Union's full support."
The Israeli airstrikes against terrorists in the Gaza Strip over the weekend, which were triggered by a rocket barrage on Israel overnight Friday, has prompted the EU to issue a statement urging both sides to exercise calm.
The organization's chief foreign policy and defense coordinator, Federica Mogherini, issued a general call for both sides to engage in talks, without assigning blame.
"The rocket fire from Gaza towards Israel must stop immediately. A de-escalation of this dangerous situation is urgently needed to ensure that civilians' lives are protected. Israelis and Palestinians both have the right to live in peace, security, and dignity," the EU said on its website. "Only a political solution can put an end to the violence. Efforts by Egypt and the UN to calm the situation have the European Union's full support."
The statement was also issued in Hebrew on the EU's Twitter account.
