Ynetnews is the English-language online news website of Ynet, which is a major Israeli news and content platform and the digital arm of *Yedioth Ahronoth*, Israel’s most widely-read newspaper. Launched in 2005 in Tel Aviv, Ynetnews provides breaking news, in-depth reporting, and commentary focusing on Israel, the Middle East, and Jewish world affairs. It covers topics like politics, terrorism, Palestinian affairs, business, culture, and more. The content is largely original, created by an independent staff, though it’s part of the *Yedioth Ahronoth* media group, which also publishes magazines like *Laisha* and *Pnai Plus*. Ynet, the Hebrew-language parent site, started in 2000 and is Israel’s most popular internet portal. Ynetnews is known for its secular, center-left perspective by Israeli standards, often critical of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, though some X posts claim it leans either far-left or right-wing, reflecting polarized views on its bias.[](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ynet)[](https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/ynetnews/)[](https://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0%2C7340%2CL-3028645%2C00.html)
