Here's the Full List of Israeli Lawmakers – and Only a Quarter Are Women
49 out of the 120 Knesset members will be entering the plenum for the first time ■ Israel drops to 69th place internationally in female representation

With all of the votes counted, the following is the list of of candidates set to become members of the next Knesset.
There are 49 new lawmakers, of them 11 are in Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud and 24 in Benny Gantz and Yair Lapid's Kahol Lavan.
The number of women parliamentarians remains about the same - 30 out of 120. This places Israel in the 69th place internationally in women's representation (compared to 54th place in the 2015 election).
Out of the 65 members who are likely to make up the next Israeli government only 13 are women - inluding 10 from the Likud's 35 and only three others. The two largest parties by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's side, both ultra-Orthodox, ban women from joining their slate altogether. In addition, 98 Knesset members were born in Israel and 22 were born abroad.

- How Benny Gantz Can Win the Vote but Still Lose the Election to Netanyahu
Likud champions tough security policies when it comes to Iran, Syria and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Many of its members oppose the creation of a Palestinian state. Benjamin Netanyahu, in a last-minute election promise, said he would annex Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank if he wins another term. In the run-up to the vote, Likud has rallied around Netanyahu, who is facing possible indictment in three corruption cases in which he has denied any wrongdoing.

UTJ is primarily concerned with safeguarding state benefits for Haredi men who devote themselves to full-time religious study and do not serve in the conscript military or work.
