HaTzeirim (Hebrew: הצעירים, lit.'The Youth') was a short-lived political faction in Israel in the late 1990s.

Background

[edit]

The faction was formed on 23 March 1999, during the 14th Knesset, when Center Party MK Eliezer Sandberg broke away from his party and established a single-member parliamentary group.

However, the faction was short-lived, as a week after its creation, Sandberg joined the Shinui group. He was later part of a group that broke away to form Secular Faction and then National Home, which merged into Likud.
