Background
The Times of Israel is an English-language daily newspaper covering Israeli politics, the Middle East, and the wider Jewish world. It reported Benjamin Netanyahu's reaction to the 16 April Lebanon Ceasefire announced by Trump on Truth Social — including the claim that Netanyahu learned of the announcement from the press rather than directly, and that Israeli ministers were described as "shocked".
Founded in February 2012 by Israeli journalist David Horovitz and American billionaire investor Seth Klarman, The Times of Israel publishes in English, Hebrew (via Zman Yisrael), Arabic, French, and Persian. It reports 8 million unique monthly users and 75 million monthly pageviews as of 2025, making it the largest English-language Israeli news outlet by audience. Horovitz is editor-in-chief; Klarman serves as chairman. The outlet describes itself as centrist and unaffiliated with any political party, with a strong focus on primary sourcing from Israeli government and defence officials.
The Times of Israel has become a primary reference for how Israeli policy and military leadership process the Iran conflict in real time. Its combination of Hebrew-language government sourcing and English-language output makes it uniquely positioned to translate Israeli internal debates — cabinet tensions, IDF briefings, Knesset votes — for the international policy community. Its Persian-language edition is read inside Iran and among diaspora communities, giving it an unusual ability to influence The Information environment on both sides of the conflict.
