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

Former Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar has filed an unprecedented defamation lawsuit against the prime minister over his alleged efforts to deflect blame for the massacre.

Israel Hayom has learned that one extreme scenario taken under consideration by the Central Elections Committee is missile fire from Iran on the morning of October 27, as polls open, aimed at generating chaos and undermining the democratic process.
After months of denials, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirms Egyptian intelligence chief Abbas Kamel landed in Israel shortly before October 7 – but insisted top leaders never meet spy heads. But Netanyahu's past meetings prove otherwise.
While Doha positioned itself as a mediator for Hamas–Israel negotations, Qatari money, fuel and supplies never stopped reaching Hamas. Officially, the money has gone toward food, shelter, medical supplies and infrastructure rehabilitation, with an Israeli assumption that this would stave off a humanitarian crisis while military pressure continued. But as in past conflicts, some of that money has indirectly benefited Hamas.
Three years after October 7, Hamas' new spokesperson warns Libya and Sudan could join the fight against Israel, while the terror group boasts of fooling Netanyahu.
