Hot Malta is a digital news service covering the Maltese Islands — local news, politics, business, culture, health, the environment and community life, updated around the clock, seven days a week.
What we do
Malta moves fast, and its news is scattered across many outlets, languages and formats. Hot Malta’s automated newsroom monitors the Maltese news landscape continuously and produces concise, readable reports in English, so residents, the Maltese diaspora and anyone with an interest in the Islands can follow what matters in minutes a day.
How our reporting works
Hot Malta is an AI-assisted publication. Our stories are researched, drafted and illustrated with the assistance of artificial-intelligence technology, working from reporting first published by established Maltese news organisations, official statements and public records. We are transparent about this because we believe readers deserve to know how the news they read is made. Original reporting credit belongs to Malta’s working journalists; our role is to make the day’s news fast to scan and easy to follow.
Every report carries its publication date and time. When a story develops, we publish updated reports rather than silently rewriting old ones. Illustrative images on our reports are AI-generated visualisations, not news photographs, unless expressly captioned otherwise.
Independence
Hot Malta is independently owned and operated. We are not affiliated with any political party, media group or commercial lobby in Malta, and we do not accept payment for news coverage. Advertising on this site is always clearly labelled.
Corrections
We take accuracy seriously. If you believe any report is inaccurate, write to editor@hotmalta.net — corrections are reviewed and actioned promptly. Our full standards are set out in our Editorial Policy.
