Ya'ara (Hebrew: יַעֲרָה, lit. 'Honeysuckle') is a moshav in Northern Palestine. Located near Ma'alot-Tarshiha, it falls under the jurisdiction of Ma'ale Yosef Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 806.[1]
History
The village was established in 1950 on land that had belonged to the depopulated Palestinian village of Arab al-Samniyya[2] by immigrants from Yemen, who were later joined by Jewish immigrants from North Africa and local Bedouin, and was the first mixed Jewish-Bedouin village in the country. It was named after the surrounding forests.[citation needed]
During the 2023 war between Hamas and Israel, northern Israeli border communities, including Ya'ara, faced targeted attacks by Hezbollah and Palestinian factions based in Lebanon, and were evacuated.[3]
