The Tekumah faction of the National Union-Yisrael Beiteinu party in the Knesset will act as an opposition faction from now on. The practical ramification is that one of the party\'s seven MKs - Tzvi Hendel - will no longer support the government. The other six members, comprising Yisrael B\'Aliyah (4) and Moledet (2), have decided to remain in the government for now.
