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

US President Donald Trump announced the release of Israeli researcher Elizabeth Tsurkov, who was abducted in Baghdad about two and a half years ago. She has been transferred to the US Embassy in the Iraqi capital.
The Shin Bet security agency proposed a similar operation a year ago, but the political echelon rejected it. This time, a combination of circumstances, including intelligence, led to a different decision.
According to a senior American official, Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed Al Thani received a direct message from Washington, demanding that he use his full influence over Hamas, or else face efforts to expel the group from Qatar.
According to reports, the strike killed senior Hamas leaders Khalil al-Hayya, Zaher Jabarin, and Nizar Awadallah. Khaled Mashaal was not present. The Israeli Air Force carried out the targeted strike against Hamas’ top leadership at its headquarters in the Qatari capital.
