Yuval (Hebrew: יוּבַל), also known as Kfar Yuval (Hebrew: כְּפַר יוּבַל), is a moshav in northern Israel. Located in the Galilee Panhandle between Metula and Kiryat Shmona, it is at the border with Lebanon and falls under the jurisdiction of Mevo'ot HaHermon Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 662.




History


The moshav was founded in 1953 by evacuees from the Old City of Jerusalem who originally arrived from Kurdistan on land that had belonged to the depopulated Palestinian village of Abil al-Qamh. It was named "Yuval" (creek) after the Jordan river's tributaries in the area and also referring to Jeremiah 17:8 ("sends out its roots by the creek"). In the early 1960s most of the founders abandoned the moshav, and it was repopulated by Indian Jewish immigrants from Kochi.
The proximity of the moshav to the border of Israel with Lebanon has made it a target for attacks. In 1975 a group of terrorists infiltrated the moshav, took control of a residence, and killed three members of one family.
The main economic branches of the moshav, as of June 2004, are a chicken coop and plantations of avocado, apples, plums and oranges. Later, the moshav also relied on tourism from Israelis, and it became one of the leading places for village-style hospitality in northern Israel.
During the 2023 conflict between Hamas and Israel, northern Israeli border communities, including Yuval, faced targeted attacks by Hezbollah and Palestinian factions based in Lebanon, and were largely evacuated. On 14 January 2024, Mira Ayalon, 76, and her son, Barak Ayalon, 40, died after anti-tank missiles struck their home in Yuval. Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the attack.
