Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a official outlet based in Jerusalem, publishing in Hebrew. It is an official source: its statements count towards how fast a story spreads, never towards the coverage bar. We do not rate its own lean on baba News’s left, centre and right scale (Official). We translate Ministry of Foreign Affairs's Hebrew coverage into clear English and compare it against other Israeli newsrooms across the spectrum.
