Friends of Israel in the Parliament of Norway

Friends of Israel in the Parliament of Norway (Norwegian: Israels Venner på Stortinget) is a pro-Israel caucus group consisting of members of the Parliament of Norway.

In 1974, the group constituted a majority in the Parliament of Norway for the first time, with 86 members among the 150 parliamentary representatives.

In 1981 the group had 100 members, but this number declined following the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982.

The group was chaired by Ingebrigt S. Sørfonn of the Christian Democratic Party.
