Regavim (Hebrew: רְגָבִים) is a kibbutz in northern Israel. Located near Umm al-Fahm, it falls under the jurisdiction of Menashe Regional Council. In 2023 it had a population of 669.[1]
Etymology
[edit | edit source]The name Regavim is taken from the Hebrew word 'regev', meaning a very small piece of land or patch of soil, a word used in a Zionist poem about reclaiming the Land of Israel, "dunam by dunam, regev by regev."
History
[edit | edit source]The kibbutz group was established in 1947 by immigrants from Italy and North Africa who were members of the Habonim Dror youth movement.[2] They first settled on the land of the depopulated Palestinian village of al-Butaymat in July 1948,[3] before moving to the land of another depopulated Palestinian village, Qannir, in 1949.[4]
