==History== The moshav was founded in 1949 as a kibbutz by demobilised IDF soldiers who had immigrated from Hungary on land that had belonged to the Palestinian village of Barbara. Barbara was to be included as part of the Arab state in the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine, but its inhabitants were forcefully expelled after the Israel Defense Forces took the village from the Egyptian Army during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War. After the war the Israeli government forbade the Palestinian residents to return. In 1954 it was converted to a moshav shitufi. Its name refers to the IDF breakthrough against the Egyptian army in the area during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.
