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
Israel has raised its alert level to its highest point amid concerns that fighting with Iran could resume, although the security establishment would prefer to maintain US military pressure and the blockade on Tehran. Alongside preparations for another possible campaign, fears are also mounting that an Iranian miscalculation could trigger a sudden regional escalation.
Police are asking for the public’s help in locating 4-year-old Yuval Kogan, who has been missing since the afternoon and was last seen near Hofit Beach in the city. Search operations are being conducted simultaneously from the air, sea and land. Police say all possible lines of investigation remain open.

The new book “The Syrian Revolution” charts Bashar Assad's downfall: “He simply did not have the qualities needed for the job.” Also: The ironic mistake that came back to haunt him more than 20 years later, and is Israel missing out al-Sharaa?
For now, events in the Gulf are being treated as “foreign news,” with Israelis chiefly concerned about the impact on flights, but that appears likely to change soon. And there is no denying it: Something is amiss in relations with the White House.
Israel’s security cabinet will convene Friday, reflecting the country’s heightened vigilance ahead of the United States’ next moves against Iran: “Trump will decide whether Israel enters the campaign, which could escalate at any moment.” Iran has also reportedly raised its alert level to the highest degree.
