Longtime Channel 10 News anchor Yaakov Eilon hosted his last newscast on the channel Sunday, after having been with the channel since its inception in 2002. At the end of the newscast a short video summarizing Eilon’s ten years of work for the channel was shown.
Eilon announced his resignation from Channel 10 several months ago, explaining that the reason for his leaving is the moving of the news studios from Givatayim to Neve Ilan, near Jerusalem, as required by law. Eilon said the move had forced him to work under impossible conditions.
