The international community considers Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights illegal under international law, but the Israeli and American governments dispute this.[2]
The settlement was established in 1974 on the site of the farm Mazraat Nab that had about 330 inhabitants before it was depopulated in 1967.[3] It was named after a village on the site mentioned in the Jerusalem Talmud.[4] The site is mentioned in the 3rd century Mosaic of Rehob.[5]
