History ILTV was founded in 2015 by media entrepreneur Ronen Lefler in partnership with J Media Global (JMG). Initially, it broadcast on Israeli cable TV outlets. It began broadcasting in December 2015.
In 2017, ILTV signed a strategic agreement with Israeli news company Walla, in which ILTV programming would be produced and broadcast from Walla's Tel Aviv studioes.
