The 120
newly elected members of Israel's 26th parliament, the Knesset, were sworn in
in a formal session in Jerusalem on Tuesday (November 10), marking the official
start of the country's new parliament.
After the oath-taking, the Knesset Secretary congratulated the new members of parliament and wished them success in the 26th parliament. The lawmakers present welcomed the new parliament's journey with applause.
The four
newly elected members who were sworn in last came under special discussion at
this year's swearing-in ceremony. Three of them have personal lives deeply
intertwined with the memories and losses of the Hamas attack of October 7,
2023.
One of
them is Shira Shapiro of the moderate Yashar party. Her son Aner Shapiro was
killed in the October 7 attack. Another is Sharon Sharabi of the Yisrael
Beitenu party. On that day, his two brothers, Eli and Yossi Sharabi, were
kidnapped from Kibbutz Beiri and taken to Gaza. Yossi died in captivity.
New
member Noam Tiban, who was sworn in at the same ceremony, is a politician from
the Yashar party and a former general in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). He
himself rushed to the Nahal Oz area during the October 7 attack and later
rescued his son and his family from there.
On the
other hand, the fourth member sworn in at the last stage, Erez Tadmor, is a
politician from the right wing Likud party. He is the founder of the Israeli
right wing political and social movement
The new
parliament's swearing in ceremony brought to the fore the memory of the October
7 attacks and their impact. The personal experiences of the four newly elected
members also highlighted the long lasting impact of the attacks on Israelipolitics. Sources:The Times of Israel
