Many young faces — that's what gets your attention when you look at the 120 Knesset Members who, jubilant and excited, took their seats at the plenary hall on the first day of the 19th Knesset. Accompanied by their children, parents, spouses and grandparents, the newly-elect Knesset Members arrived at the parliament, where they hugged, kissed, shook hands and swore allegiance to the Knesset.
Here they are, Stav Shaffir and Itzik Shmuli, the heroes of last year's social protest. She is 27 years old, the youngest Knesset member, in a lovely dress. He is 32, wearing a suit and tie. A year and a half after becoming icons of the social protest, they are being sworn in as Knesset Members on the Labor Party ticket. At the moment it seems that they will serve from the opposition, as will Hilik Bar and Michal Biran from their faction, also both new Knesset members in their thirties.
