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
Chaotic night in Israel as thousands block major roads. Dramatic scenes triggered by enactment of first judicial reform bill. State Party Chairman Benny Gantz promises to roll back the legislation while Opposition Leader Yair Lapid says, "This government can win the battle, but not the war."
Justice Minister Yariv Levin, the architect of the plan, says parliament has taken the “first step in an important historic process” of overhauling the judiciary.
With a key portion of the overhaul passed on Monday, protesters are vowing further "days of disruption" and calling for strikes and general unrest.
Walls and fences running the length of the street outside the Supreme Court, Prime Minister's Office and parliament were plastered with hundreds of stickers reading “we won't service a dictator,” “democracy or rebellion” and “save Israel from Netanyahu.” Police try to clear away the crowds with water cannons spraying skunk-scented water.
In June 2023, the Israel Innovation Authority signed a cooperation agreement with the Investment and Development Authority of Latvia, with the latter opening a permanent representative office in Israel to promote economic ties.
