Source-derived summary

New Hope (Hebrew: תִּקְוָוה חֲדָשָׁה, romanized: Tikva Hadasha), officially known as New Hope – The National Right (Hebrew: תִּקְוָוה חֲדָשָׁה הימין הממלכתי, romanized: Tikva Hadasha HaYamin HaMamlakhti), and also translated as New Hope – The United Right, is a centre-right to right-wing, national-liberal political party in Israel.

History

The party was formed by former Likud MK and former minister Gideon Sa'ar on 8 December 2020, with Sa'ar subsequently submitting his resignation from the Knesset on 9 December. On the same day, Derekh Eretz MKs Yoaz Hendel and Zvi Hauser announced that they would join New Hope. Likud MKs Yifat Shasha-Biton, Michal Shir, Sharren Haskel, and Ze'ev Elkin later joined as well. Meir Yitzhak Halevi joined the party on 28 December. Benny Begin and Dani Dayan joined on 21 January 2021, whilst MK Hila Vazan joined on 31 January.

The party signed a surplus-vote agreement with Yamina on 4 January 2021.

On 10 July 2022, New Hope formed a joint list with Blue and White, led by Benny Gantz, ahead of the upcoming legislative election. The next month, the name of the joint list, National Unity, was announced.

In October 2023, National Unity joined the Thirty-seventh government of Israel and the Israeli war cabinet in the aftermath of the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “israeli political party” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 19, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q104073895. None of the 4 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
