Schedule

Israel Brief runs six days a week. We publish daily except on Shabbat. On Yamim Tovim — Jewish festivals where work is set aside — we also pause. The rhythm of Jewish time shapes our rhythm. No breaking news is more important than honoring sacred days.

What We’re About

Vision

We envision a world where anyone can gain a fuller, more balanced understanding of Israel — its challenges, resilience, and vitality — through a lens of clarity and truth.

Mission

Our mission is simple: to deliver a reliable, insightful roundup of Israeli news each day (except Saturday), curated from trusted global and Israeli sources.

Values

  • Resilience: Reflecting the unyielding spirit of Israel and its people.

  • Responsibility: Honoring readers’ trust with accurate, unembellished reporting.

  • Memory: Preserving the past to illuminate the present.

  • Shmirah (Guardianship): Protecting truth with rigor.

  • Balance: Pausing for Shabbat — a reminder that even news must make space for rest.

Together, these values guide Israel Brief, a publication rooted in conviction, shaped by community, and committed to enduring truth.
