Yossi Melman
Yossi Melman (Hebrew: יוסי מלמן; born December 27, 1950) is an Israeli writer and journalist. He was an intelligence and strategic affairs correspondent for the Haaretz newspaper, and in 2013 he joined The Jerusalem Post and its Hebrew sister paper Maariv in a similar, more analytical role covering also military issues. In 2019 he returned to Haaretz.
Yosef "Yossi" Melman was born in Poland. The family immigrated to Israel in 1957, when he was six years old. In his youth, he belonged to the HaShomer HaTzair movement. From 1969 Melman served for three years with "Shaked", a reconnaissance and Special Forces unit in the Israel Defense Forces. He graduated from Hebrew University of Jerusalem and was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University.
Since 1974, Melman has worked in various capacities in the Israeli media. He has worked for 27 years in the Israeli Haaretz daily as a senior correspondent on national security, intelligence and strategic issues. Melman was involved in several legal and public battles to lift gag orders issued by Israeli courts and censors.
He wrote 10 non-fiction books on the Israeli Intelligence Community, security, terrorism and nuclear issues which were published in more than 40 countries in 15 languages. One of his books, Every Spy a Prince, co-authored with former CBS News reporter Dan Raviv, was a New York Times best-seller for 12 weeks. Melman also wrote a play in Hebrew, The Good Son, staged by the Tel Aviv Cameri Theater in 2006.
In 2016 he was a consultant and protagonist in Alex Gibney's documentary Zero Days, which won the Peabody Award.
In 2017 he created with director Duki Dror a four-part TV documentary called The Mossad Cover Story. The series received good reviews in the Israeli media. In 2019, it was aired by Netflix under the title Inside The Mossad.
Melman is an avid runner and triathlete who ran 35 marathons in Europe and the US, six ultramarathons of 50 to 75 km and four Ironman Triathlons. He is the initiator and founder of "Israman" (Israel's Ironman). In 2009, eighty days after suffering a heart attack, he returned to run a full marathon. One of his books in Hebrew is called "Autobiography of Running". In December 2016 he ran 66 km to mark his 66th birthday.
In 2020, US President Donald Trump retweeted Melman's account of the killing of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, head of the nuclear program of Iran.
