Kiryat Netafim
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kiryat Netafim (Hebrew: קרית נטפים, Arabic: كريات نتافيم) is an Israeli settlement located in the West Bank region of Samaria, about 30 km east of Tel Aviv, and under the administrative municipal government of the Shomron Regional Council. The yishuv was founded in June 1984 by a group of Orthodox Yemenite Jews as another link in a chain of settlements built along the Trans-Samaria Highway and adjacent to the Barkan Industrial Park in which Israelis and Palestinians work side by side in dozens of factories. Since then, Kiryat Netafim has lost its homogeneous nature while accepting families from many different backgrounds. The community is located in the vicinity of several archaeological sites.
