Meretz central committee approves Democratic Camp merger

Meretz’s central committee approves the left-wing party’s joining of the Democratic Camp alliance — an electoral union of Meretz, former prime minister Ehud Barak’s Israel Democratic Party, and breakaway Labor MK Stav Shaffir.

“For the first time, we have an opportunity to lead and make history. The Israeli electorate will move the political map to the left,” Meretz leader Nitzan Horowitz, who is heading the Democratic Party, tells the committee.
