      Israel’s 48 new MK-elects made their first visit to the Knesset building on Sunday morning, where they underwent a “crash course” to learn the rules. The 48 took part in a crash course in Knesset etiquette and regulations.

      This year's national elections broke several records, among them in the number of complete newcomers to the Knesset. 19 of the 48 newcomers are all from the newly-formed Yesh Atid, a party which prided itself on having a list that is made up entirely of new politicians.
