  • Anchor Miri Michaeli hospitalized before i24NEWS broadcast.
  • She missed the program and the channel's new campaign launch.
  • Michaeli shared an update from the hospital, citing a suspected virus.
  • Michal Ravinovitch substituted for her on air.

Miri Michaeli, a main news anchor for i24NEWS, was taken to the hospital shortly before she was scheduled to host the evening news broadcast on Wednesday. Michaeli felt unwell and required medical attention just before the program was set to begin, leading to her absence from the air. Michal Ravinovitch filled in for her.

The incident occurred on a particularly significant day for the news channel, which was launching its new advertising campaign. Michaeli is one of the anchors fronting the new campaign, but instead of appearing as planned, she had to miss the broadcast due to her medical condition.

While awaiting treatment at a clinic, Michaeli shared a photo on social media showing her connected to an IV drip. She captioned the image, "A somewhat tough day. Getting better. Sorry I bailed on you." She was later released from the hospital and sent home, with the suspected cause being a virus.
