Új Kelet (pronounced [ˈuːj ˈkɛlɛt]; Hungarian translation: "New East") is a Hungarian-language Zionist Jewish newspaper published first in Kolozsvár (Cluj) in Transylvania, Romania, and reestablished after an 8-year break in Tel Aviv, Israel in 1948.
Under the initiative of Chaim Weiszburg, a leader of the Zionist movement, Uj Kelet was launched as a weekly on December 19, 1918. It became a daily in 1920. The first editor was Béla Székely, who was succeeded in 1919 by Ernő Marton.
From 1927 until the end of its Transylvanian period, the editor was Ferenc Jámbor. After the Hungarian annexation of Cluj in 1940, the Horthy regime banned the paper because of its strong Zionist leanings. Márton emigrated to Palestine (Eretz Israel) after World War II, and in 1948, the paper reemerged under his editorship with David Schon in Tel Aviv. Among the writers at the newspaper after its reestablishment in Israel were Alexander Sauber, Rudolf Kastner, Yossef Lapid, Ephraim Kishon, Ottó Rappaport [hu], Elemer Diamant, David Drori, and Pal Benedek. The paper became a weekly publication from 2000 to 2015. From 2016 onwards, it has been published monthly.
From 1993 to 2015 George Edri was the owner of Új Kelet. Új Kelet is currently the main Hungarian-language independent newspaper in Israel and is published on a monthly basis.[1]
