In July 2013, i24NEWS launched three news channels in English, French and Arabic from its specially-built studios in the Jaffa Port on the shores of the Mediterranean. The channel began broadcasting international news alongside extensive coverage of the Middle East.

Following the signing of the historic Abraham Accords in 2020, i24NEWS signed several Memorandums of Understanding and partnership agreements with leading media companies in the United Arab Emirates. In 2021, the channel received a UAE broadcast license and launched its new studios in Dubai. The channel continues to consistently expand its activities in the Middle East. I24NEWS is creating opportunities for partnerships that will enrich cooperation in the Middle East and Gulf regions, the most recent of which is Bahrain.
