i24NEWS Anchor Miri Michaeli Rushed to Hospital Before Broadcast
i24NEWS anchor Miri Michaeli, 41, experienced a medical emergency Wednesday evening, minutes before she was scheduled to host the channel's main news broadcast. Michaeli felt unwell in the studio and required immediate medical attention. Her colleague, Michal Rabinovich, stepped in at the last minute to present the program.
Michaeli was transported to the hospital, where she underwent tests and received fluids. Doctors suspect she is suffering from a virus. During her treatment, Michaeli updated her social media followers, sharing a photo from her hospital bed and apologizing for missing the broadcast, thanking Rabinovich for filling in.
The incident occurred on a sensitive day for the news channel, which was launching a new, high-profile advertising campaign featuring Michaeli as a prominent figure. After several hours of observation and treatment, Michaeli was released from the hospital to rest at home.
