National camp

In Israeli politics, the national camp (Hebrew: המחנה הלאומי‎) is an informal coalition of nationalist and right-wing religious political parties that, since 1977, has frequently co-operated to form governments.[1]

It is led by Likud, and includes parties to its right as well as religious parties. In the past, it has included the National Religious Party and the National Union. Today, other parties considered to be in the national camp include Gesher (since 2020), Tkuma, The Jewish Home, the New Right, Shas, Yisrael Beiteinu, Zehut, Noam, and United Torah Judaism.[2][3][4][5][6][7]
