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
Netanyahu instructs envoy to meet Lebanese governmental-economic officials in rare move. This marks a first attempt to establish a foundation for an economic relationship and cooperation between the countries, with Dr. Uri Resnick leading Israeli side.
Diplomatic sources reveal the Trump administration has set a deadline for Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah, warning that failure to act will make a new military conflict unavoidable.
Hours after the IDF killed Hezbollah’s chief of staff in Beirut, a senior American official told Israel Hayom that the strike had not been coordinated in advance. According to the official, the US was updated only immediately afterward and, as he put it, “my understanding is that he was a target of opportunity and the Israelis seized the chance.”
The strike, dubbed "Black Friday", was in the Dahiyeh stronghold. The target: Haytham 'Ali Tabataba'i, the group's military chief. Israel braces for potential reprisal, as November 2024 truce tested. "Israel is determined to act to achieve its objectives everywhere and at all times," PM says.
Lebanese media reported coordinated airstrikes targeting Hezbollah infrastructure across multiple regions as drone activity increased over Dahiyeh.
It is possible Israel will launch a short, proactive operation to strike Hezbollah targets across Lebanon in order to prevent the terrorist organization from rebuilding its strength.
Hezbollah has informed Lebanese leaders that it intends to respond to future Israeli strikes against its operatives, according to a letter the Shia terror organization sent to top officials in Beirut.
The IDF said that, "an initial inquiry suggests that UNIFIL forces stationed nearby deliberately fired at the drone and downed it. The drone's activity did not pose a threat to UNIFIL forces."
Salah Abu-Hussein was freed following negotiations conducted in recent months with the assistance of the Red Cross. He was transferred to Israel at the Rosh Hanikra crossing from Lebanese authorities to the Coordinator of Prisoners and Missing Persons, Gal Hirsch.
