Alonei HaBashan

Alonei HaBashan (Hebrew: אַלּוֹנֵי הַבָּשָׁן‎‎) is an Israeli settlement, moshav shitufi, located in the central Golan Heights, under the administration of Israel. The settlement was built in 1981, and its name is taken from the Bible (Isaiah 2:13). "Bashan" is a Biblical name for the Golan Heights. It falls under the municipal jurisdiction of the Golan Regional Council. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.^[1]
