Geulat Israel (Template:Lang-he, Salvation of Israel) was a short-lived Haredi political party in Israel in the early 1990s.

Background

The party was established on 25 December 1990 when Eliezer Mizrahi broke away from Agudat Yisrael.[1] Despite leaving the party, Mizrahi remained Deputy Minister of Health.

The party participated in the 1992 elections, where it won 12,851 votes (0.5%). However, this was not enough to cross the electoral threshold of 1.5% and Mizrahi lost his seat. The party subsequently disappeared
