Fourth government of Israel

Fourth government of Israel

The fourth government of Israel was formed by David Ben-Gurion during the second Knesset on 24 December, 1952. Ben-Gurion dropped the ultra-orthodox parties Agudat Israel and Agudat Israel Workers from his coalition and replaced them with the General Zionists and the Progressive Party, who formed the government together with Mapai, Mizrachi, Hapoel HaMizrachi, the Democratic List for Israeli Arabs, Progress and Work and Agriculture and Development.

The government fell when Ben-Gurion resigned on 6 December 1953 as he wished to settle in the Negev kibbutz of Sde Boker.
