Moshe Passal (also known as Moshiko Passal)[1] is an Israeli politician currently serving as a Member of the Knesset for Likud.
Passal was born in Nehalim[2] and studied at a yeshiva.[3] In 2018, he participated in a season of Big Brother.[1]
Passal ran in Likud primaries ahead of the April 2019 Israeli legislative election, seeking election to the 34th spot on the party list, which reserved for young candidates,[4] but was defeated by May Golan.[5] He was ultimately assigned the 52nd spot and was not elected.[6] He was later given the 54th spot ahead of the September 2019 election.[7] Passal ran for the party list again ahead of the 2022 election, and won the 40th spot. He was not elected, but entered the Knesset on 12 March 2023 as a replacement for Galit Distel-Atbaryan, who resigned under the Norwegian Law.[8][9]
