Ibei HaNahal

Ibei HaNahal (Hebrew: איבי הנחל) is a haredi Israeli settlement outpost within the Gush Etzion settlement block in the West Bank.[1] Its residents established it as an ecovillage. The outpost is under the jurisdiction of the Gush Etzion Regional Council. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[2]
