Mekhora (Hebrew: מְכוֹרָה, lit. Homeland) is a moshav and Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Located in the Jordan Valley, it falls under the jurisdiction of Bik'at HaYarden Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 114.
The moshav was founded in 1973 by a Nahal brigade, and was originally named Nahal Mekhora.
The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[1]
