==History== The village was established in 1950 by Jewish immigrants and refugees from Tripoli (in modern Libya). They were later joined by more Jewish immigrants from Algeria and Tunisia. However, this created tensions between the residents, and in 1957 the moshav split in two, with the Tunisian residents leaving to form Zimrat.
