Season chronology

This marks the third season to include celebrities, following the 2012 Survivor VIP season and the half-celebrity Survivor: Honduras. With the inclusion of Kasry as the season's sole returning player, this season is the second overall to include former players, after Survivor: Fans vs. Survivors. This was the first season to air on Reshet 13 following the closure of Channel 2, and the third consecutive season to air on Reshet.

This season reintroduced duels, in which two castaways were sent to a secluded location immediately following the immunity challenge to compete for a reward, as last seen in the fifth season. Before the merge, one castaway from each tribe was sent to compete; if the representative from the tribe that won the immunity challenge won the duel, they would cast a vote for the losing tribe's upcoming Tribal Council on behalf of their tribe, which was publicly revealed at the start of the losing tribe's individual immunity challenge. After the merge, the immunity challenge winner chose the two duelists. The winner spun a wheel to earn one of three prizes, while the loser received a corresponding punishment.

Notes
  1. At the Negotiation Cabin, Einat and Lihi were offered a secret advantage in exchange for eliminating one of their tribemates, who would then be replaced by Naama. Lihi took the offer and eliminated Rotem, and Naama returned to the game.
  2. For accepting the Negotiation Cabin temptation on Day 3, Lihi was given a note stating that if she were voted out unanimously at the joint Tribal Council on Day 19, she would return to the game with "tremendous power"; these conditions were met, and Lihi returned to the game the following day.
  3. For completing her mission of getting voted out unanimously on Day 19, Lihi returned to the game with the power to choose two contestants to compete in a duel, with the loser being eliminated from the game. Lihi chose Joezi and Shaked to compete; Shaked won and Joezi was eliminated.
  4. On Day 3, all the players drew rocks at random, to be broken upon being voted out; if the rock contained the golden fossil, the vote would be nullified and the player would immediately return to the game. Upon being voted out on Day 28, Luna's rock was revealed to contain the golden fossil, and she returned to the game.
  5. At the Survivor Auction, Meni and Simcha bought rocks, one with a golden fossil and one without. Upon being voted out on Day 31, Simcha's rock was revealed to contain the golden fossil, and she returned to the game.
  6. For losing the elimination challenge on Day 39, Ira was immediately eliminated from the game.

  1. At the Negotiation Cabin, Einat and Lihi were offered a secret advantage in exchange for eliminating one of their tribemates, who would then be replaced by Naama. Lihi took the offer and eliminated Rotem, and Naama returned to the game.
  2. This cycle featured a joint Tribal Council, where both tribes went to Tribal Council to eliminate a single player; as a result, it followed the typical post-merge schedule with a veto challenge and no tribal immunity challenge.
  3. At the Negotiation Cabin, Assaf and Mishel chose one tribemate to not participate in the upcoming immunity challenge; Assaf chose himself and Mishel chose Simcha. Assaf and Simcha then earned individual immunity as a result.
  4. For accepting the Negotiation Cabin temptation on Day 3, Lihi was given a note stating that if she were voted out unanimously at the joint Tribal Council on Day 19, she would return to the game with "tremendous power"; these conditions were met, and Lihi returned to the game the following day.
  5. The challenge was a duel between one member of each tribe; Eyal defeated Joezi. After Eyal chose whom to share his reward with, the tribes were merged.
  6. For completing her mission of getting voted out unanimously on Day 19, Lihi returned to the game with the power to choose two contestants to compete in a duel, with the loser being eliminated from the game. Lihi chose Joezi and Shaked to compete; Shaked won and Joezi was eliminated.
  7. The challenge was competed by teams of three; the winners collectively assigned the veto bracelet at that night's Tribal Council.
  8. On Day 3, all the players drew rocks at random, to be broken upon being voted out; if the rock contained the golden fossil, the vote would be nullified and the player would immediately return to the game. Upon being voted out on Day 28, Luna's rock was revealed to contain the golden fossil, and she returned to the game.
  9. At the Survivor Auction, Meni and Simcha bought rocks, one with a golden fossil and one without. Upon being voted out on Day 31, Simcha's rock was revealed to contain the golden fossil, and she returned to the game.
  10. No reward challenge due to elimination challenge.
  11. For losing the elimination challenge on Day 40, Ira was immediately eliminated from the game.

  1. At the Negotiation Cabin, Einat and Lihi were offered a secret advantage in exchange for eliminating one of their tribemates, who would then be replaced by Naama. Lihi took the offer and eliminated Rotem, and Naama returned to the game.

  3. After the votes were cast at Tribal Council but before they were read, Moshe decided to quit the game, thus cancelling the votes.

  5. The initial vote resulted in a tie between Alexa and Orin; as such, the tie was resolved by a firemaking competition, which Alexa won.
  6. For accepting the Negotiation Cabin temptation on Day 3, Lihi was given a note stating that if she were voted out unanimously at the joint Tribal Council on Day 19, she would return to the game with "tremendous power"; these conditions were met, and Lihi returned to the game the following day.
  7. Mishel was medically evacuated from the game.

  9. Naama played a hidden immunity idol on Lihi, therefore the five votes against her were not counted.
  10. On Day 3, all the players drew rocks at random, to be broken upon being voted out; if the rock contained the golden fossil, the vote would be nullified and the player would immediately return to the game. Upon being voted out on day 28, Luna's rock was revealed to contain the golden fossil, and she returned to the game.
  11. At the Survivor Auction, Meni and Simcha bought rocks, one with a golden fossil and one without. Upon being voted out on Day 31, Simcha's rock was revealed to contain the golden fossil, and she returned to the game.

  13. For losing the elimination challenge on Day 40, Ira was immediately eliminated from the game.
  14. Simcha played an extra vote advantage, allowing her to cast two ballots during a single vote.
  15. This castaway was given the veto bracelet, and was therefore not eligible to vote.
  16. At the Survivor Auction, Meni bought an additional veto bracelet to be used at the next Tribal Council, which he gave on Ira.
  17. As the immunity challenge-losing tribe's representative lost the subsequent duel, the winning tribe collectively cast a vote for the losing tribe's Tribal Council.

  19. At the Negotiation Cabin, Lihi and Luna had to choose to cast a penalty vote against one competitor; they chose Simcha.
