Oren Hazan replaced by Yisrael Beytenu’s Hamad Amar

The Knesset House Committee approves the ouster of Oren Hazan as deputy Knesset speaker.

He will be replaced by Yisrael Beytenu party member Hamad Amar, in accordance with the deal that saw Beytenu join the governing coalition late last month.

The appointment still requires the approval of the Knesset plenum.
