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

Background

The faction was formed on 23 March 1999, during the 14th Knesset, when Centre 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.
