Yomtob Kalfon (Hebrew: יום טוב כלפון) is an Israeli attorney and politician who currently serves as a member of the Knesset for Yamina.
He was placed twelfth on the New Right's electoral list ahead of the April 2019 elections,[1] but failed to win a seat. He was an unsuccessful candidate again in September 2019 (17th on the Yamina list),[2] March 2020 (seventeenth on the Yamina list)[3] and March 2021 (eleventh on the Yamina list).[4] However, after Yamina MK Ayelet Shaked resigned from the Knesset under the Norwegian Law in June 2021 following her appointment as Minister of the Interior, Kalfon entered the Knesset as her replacement.
Kalfon was born in France and made aliyah in 2004. He lives in Beit Raban.
