Israel Television News Company (Hebrew: חברת החדשות הישראלית בע"מ, translit. Hevrat HaHadashot [HaYisra'elit], lit. '[Israeli] News Company'), is the shared news division of the Israeli television channels Keshet 12 and Reshet 13.
It originally served as the news department of Channel 2, where the bulletins were known as Hadashot 2 (Hebrew: החדשות 2, lit. '[Channel] 2 News'), and is funded by its concessionaires, Keshet Media Group and Reshet. Since the 1 November 2017 replacement of the network with two individual channels owned by the respective companies, its news programming has been split between the two channels, besides the flagship, prime time bulletin Hadashot at 8:00 p.m. IST, which is simulcast by both channels.
Its studios are located in 'Kiryat ha'tikshoret' (lit. Media's complex) of "Globus group" company in Neve Ilan on Jerusalem mountains, since 2000. Prior to that, the studios were located at 'Ulpaney Habira' studios in 'Beit Eged' building in Jerusalem City.
