KAN
The Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation is the national broadcaster of Israel. The IPBC carries the blanket branding Kan in Hebrew. After multiple delays due to disagreements over its structure brought upon by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the IPBC officially began its radio and television operations on 15 May 2017, succeeding the Israel Broadcasting Authority (IBA) as state broadcaster. Its formal goals include promoting the expansion of knowledge, Israeli culture, and innovation in broadcasting.
