Yuli Novak (Hebrew: יולי נובק) is an Israeli human rights activist. From 2012 to 2017, she was the executive director of Breaking the Silence. In 2022, she fled Israel after receiving death threats and being called a traitor by Israeli politicians. She published a memoir, Who Do You Think You Are.[1][2][3][4][5] Since 2023, she has led B'Tselem after returning to Israel, replacing Hagai El-Ad as the executive director.

In 2025 she authored a number of op-eds accusing Israel of committing a genocide in Gaza.[6][7][8]
