Israeli reporter Barak Betesh has officially announced his move to Channel 16, where he will serve as the diplomatic correspondent. This transition follows his departure from i24NEWS. Betesh stated that he is excited about his new role and aims to provide viewers and readers with the most accurate and reliable picture of events. He acknowledged the current period is filled with significant political headlines and that his new position carries substantial responsibility.
Betesh's career in television began in April 2025 when he joined i24NEWS, moving from radio to screen. Prior to that, he spent over two years as a foreign correspondent for Galatz (Galei Tzahal). At i24NEWS, he initially covered foreign affairs and later advanced to become head of the foreign desk.
