Kidmat Tzvi (Hebrew: קִדְמַת צְבִי) is an Israeli settlement (moshava) in the central Golan Heights with a population of 375 people. The area was ran over by Israeli Army in the Six Days War and later included by Israel under military occupation. The settlement was built in 1981, in the same year when Israeli unilaterally annexed the Golan region and imposed civil Israeli rule on the area. 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]
