SHANNA FULD

Shanna Fuld hosting an Event at Tribe Tel Aviv As I celebrate Shavuot in Israel, I’ve just returned from a deeply meaningful vacation in Italy with my two sisters—a rare and much-needed reunion. Living i n Israel while they are based in the U.S. means we don't get nearly enough time together, making this trip especially personal and emotional. Saying goodbye at the airport was difficult, but I returned home feeling grateful for the time we shared. As soon as I landed, I hit t

Shanna Fuld in New York with Family Family Time While Living Abroad is something I deeply value, especially because opportunities to be with my sisters are rare. This upcoming week, I’ll be away from my desk spending much-needed quality time with my family. My sisters are twins, and while I live in Israel, they are based in the United States. In fact, it has been nearly nine months since I last saw one of them, who now lives in Utah. Investing in family became a personal prio

Shanna Fuld CEO of the Israel Daily News covering the Bibas Family Funeral Covering the Bibas family funeral was one of the heaviest days of my war coverage. Wednesday began in Rishon LeZion, where the caskets were carefully placed into vans before beginning their final journey.

The return of Shiri Bibas, after months of desperate hope and agonizing uncertainty, sent a wave of grief through Israel. It was not simply the news itself—it was the painful confirmation of what so many had feared. A mother taken alongside her two young sons, Ariel and Kfir, became a symbol of the tragedy that has touched countless families since October 7. The image of Shiri B

Emily Damari October 7 Hostage, Reunited with Her Family Every night since October 7, I go to bed feeling fortunate. As I tuck myself in, I think about the hostages—many close to my age—who do not know whether it is day or night. I think about their families, especially their parents, who have endured unimaginable uncertainty. Today, three young female hostages were returned to Israel. This Israeli hostage release allowed them to reunite with their mothers after months in cap

Hanukkah in Israel - Decorations seen in the streets of Israel - December 2024 Seasonal Wishes for a Happy New Gregorian Year As we enter the holiday season in Israel, with Hanukkah, Christmas, and the Gregorian New Year approaching, I want to share what has been on my mind and in my heart this year. There is something special about the holidays aligning, allowing people from different backgrounds and traditions to celebrate together. Before I share my personal reflections, I

Shanna Fuld, CEO of Israel Daily News inside a car in Israel This week I had to run out of my home twice in the wee hours of the morning (and once in the afternoon) because Houthi terrorists in Yemen sent rockets into central Israel, and both landed too close for comfort. For many of us, this is the reality of life under rocket fire in Israel—being jolted awake by sirens, rushing to safety, and trying to maintain some sense of normalcy amid the uncertainty. The first time was
