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.

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.

Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) officially announced Monday evening the discovery of a deceased hostage. The Qatari Al-Jazeera channel reported the deceased Israeli hostage was located in rubble in northern Nuseirat in the Gaza Strip. According to the report, the deceased hostage was held by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. According to assessments within the security establishment, the discovery involves remains rather than a complete body, but official confirmation has not yet been received.

The Prime Minister's Office sharply condemned the delayed transfer of the deceased hostage. "In light of Palestinian Islamic Jihad's announcement about locating remains of a deceased hostage, Israel views with severity the delay in his immediate transfer to its hands. This constitutes another violation of the agreement," the office stated.
The office added, "Israel demands the immediate return of the three deceased hostages still held in the Gaza Strip."
