Mekhora (Hebrew: <templatestyles src="Script/styles_hebrew.css" />מְכוֹרָה, lit. Homeland) is a moshav and Israeli settlement in the West Bank.[1] Located in the Jordan Valley, it falls under the jurisdiction of Bik'at HaYarden Regional Council.[1] In 2011 it had a population of 117.[2]
The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[3]
History
The moshav was founded in 1973 by a Nahal brigade, and was originally named Nahal Mekhora.[1]
