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.

Klara Marman (63), her partner Louis Har (), her brother Fernando Marman, their sister Gabriella Leimberg and her daughter Mia (17) were all taken from Kibbutz Nir Itzhak, where they met on the day before, October 6th, to celebrate Klara's grand-daughter Shahar's second birthday. Klara's daughter, Ma'ayan Sigal-Koren, talks about her mother and her family on video.
"The relationship between my mother and her siblings… it's not a coincidence they ended up in Gaza together. My mother is 63 years old. She's the warmest woman in the world. She's a kindergarten teacher, and for 30 years she raised all the kids in the Kibbutz.

"I want my mother and I want my family more than anything, because I must… because she's there, and they're there. We must do whatever we can."
