The National Unity or State Camp (Hebrew: המחנה הממלכתי, romanized: HaMahane HaMamlakhti)^[4] is an Israeli political alliance made up of former IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz's Israel Resilience Party, former IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eizenkot and MK Matan Kahana.

The alliance was created to participate in the 2022 Israeli legislative election. Since 12 October 2023, it has been part of the Thirty-seventh government of Israel, led by Benjamin Netanyahu. Gideon Sa'ar's New Hope party left the alliance in March 2024.
