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.

A missile fired from Yemen forced millions of residents in the Jerusalem area and Tel Aviv region to seek shelter Monday, marking the latest in a series of attacks by Houthi forces despite ongoing US military operations in Yemen. The missile was intercepted over Jordanian territory, with some reports indicating fragments managed to fall in Israeli territory north of Tel Aviv and in the Judean Foothills.
The Houthis have resumed missile launches toward Israel over the past week, actions they claim demonstrate solidarity with Hamas, with at least three interceptions of projectiles toward Israel. These attacks continue despite President Donald Trump's intensified air campaign targeting Houthi positions in Yemen and his administration's explicit warning that such attacks would be considered Iranian-backed aggression.
The missile launch triggered air raid sirens across central Israel, sending residents into shelters during the incident.

This escalation comes amid heightened regional tensions, with the Iran-backed Houthis maintaining their capability to launch long-range missiles despite months of US-led coalition strikes aimed at degrading their military infrastructure, and the recent airstrikes from Trump.
Israeli officials have repeatedly linked the Houthi attacks to Iranian support, claiming Tehran provides weapons, technology and training to the Yemen-based group.
