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
The support Hamas received after October 7 necessitates making it clear that a Palestinian state will not be established alongside Israel. We must engage President Trump in creative solutions, such as the 'Emirates Plan.'
The differences in outlook between the outgoing administration and the incoming one are no secret. While analyzing intergovernmental relations often emerges only years later through the lens of historical perspective, the divergent approaches toward Israel are already apparent.
Sometimes "madman foreign policy" actually works.
Current government lacks mandate and credibility to capitalize on strategic opportunities with new US administration.
Israel must learn from its failure to defeat Hamas and Hezbollah, and find a way – combining military and diplomatic moves – to prevent the return of threats from Gaza and Lebanon.
Unlike past deals made when terror groups held assets, Hamas enters this agreement battered and beaten. The challenge will be withstanding external pressures and preventing the organization from recovering.
The sole reason Netanyahu signed the deal was Trump. In America on the eve of his inauguration, where it feels as if the entire world is bowing to the new-old president, it’s clear why Israel took this step. Yet, it is still unacceptable that the promise of 'total victory' ends as an embarrassing surrender deal.
The hostages are not mere “bargaining chips.” If you speak about a hostage release as though these are not your family members, then you fundamentally don’t understand Israelis.
The landmark agreement brokered in Qatar marks the beginning of a comprehensive diplomatic initiative reshaping US-Israel relations.
This scenario is comparable to the United States allowing Guantanamo detainees to disperse along its borders with Canada and Mexico a year after 9/11, or permitting them to join Taliban forces against US troops in Afghanistan – a notion that defies strategic logic.
