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. Israel Hayom welcomes feedback, criticism, and suggestions for improvement from its readers. You can contact the organization by email at hayom@israelhayom.co.il
Alongside the fighting on seven fronts, Israel must commit to rebuilding the devastated communities of the north and south. Bringing residents home is only the first step: Long-term recovery requires a joint effort by the public and business sectors and philanthropic organizations to create educational opportunities, jobs and hope for the next generation. The opportunity before us is nothing short of historic.
We do not see our social efforts as a favor for those who risked their lives to protect us. On the contrary, it is a privilege to work alongside them, learn from them and recognize them as part of Israel's next generation of leaders.
We must reach out to Jewish communities around the world, listen to them, understand their challenges and strengthen their sense of belonging and mutual responsibility. We need a partnership built on action, volunteering, education, aliyah and building a shared future.
From boycotts at international competitions and bans on hosting games in Israel to prolonged disruptions in the education system, Israeli sports and education have suffered serious setbacks since Oct. 7. Despite the remarkable achievements of Israeli athletes and the dedication of teachers, investing in these two fields is not a luxury. It is essential to securing Israel's resilience.
The war and the military operations that followed have offered a glimpse of the future battlefield, where stockpiles of munitions and interceptors, real-time data processing and international cooperation are decisive factors. Alongside massive investments in defensive and offensive capabilities, the defense industry faces mounting challenges in supply, budgets and sustained production.
Turkey continues to reject the historical record of the Pontic Greek genocide. A state that demands scrutiny of another country’s conduct cannot exempt its own historical record from scrutiny.
If young people's support for Israel is eroding today, within less than a decade that decline will translate into diminished political, economic and strategic support.
Thousands of young Diaspora Jews are determined to come to Israel even during wartime and under missile fire, eager to volunteer, teach and contribute. We cannot rely on hatred of Jews around the world to strengthen their connection to Israel. Here is how we can turn the next generation from a "target audience" into committed partners.
Since October 7, we hear the same words over and over again: May we be worthy. Worthy of the fallen. Worthy of their courage. Worthy of their sacrifice. Those words are hollow without a demand for accountability. If a commander is responsible for what happens in his unit, and the IDF chief of staff is responsible for the military he leads, what does responsibility mean for a prime minister and the country he leads?
The death of a 22-year-old woman in the custody of the morality police ignited an unprecedented wave of protest. Since then, protesters have been crushed with live fire, thousands have been killed and arrested, but Iranian society is no longer willing to return to the old obedience.
