Establishment of the State of Israel
On Thursday, May 14 1948 The Provisional Council headed by David Ben-Gurion declared the independence of the State of Israel. The Histadrut, whose institutions formed the infrastructure for the pre-State of Israel, transferred some of its functions to the responsibility of the state. The IDF was established on the basis of the organizational structure of the Haganah, and the Histadrut continued to take care of a variety of national tasks: the development of agricultural settlements, the establishment of factories and the absorption of immigrants.
David Ben-Gurion Chairman of the Histadrut in the years 1921-1935
The first Prime Minister and Minister of Defense of the State of Israel.
