History

Ynetnews was established in 2005 in Tel Aviv with the goal of providing the Israeli community and its readers worldwide reporting and real-time breaking news from Israel and the Middle East. The Founding Editor of Ynetnews, Alan Abbey, left in the summer of 2005 to form his own media company, Abbey Content Enterprises, and Ynetnews is now headed by Yon Feder, Editor-in-Chief of Ynet.

Ynetnews’ team of translators and editors provide 24/7 coverage of news from Israel and the Middle East, based on the reporting and writing of Ynet and from Yedioth Ahronoth and other publications of the parent company, Yedioth Group.

Ynetnews also produces original material and works with in-depth news reporting, commentary and analysis by Israel’s public opinion makers as well as features from Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish world.
