Geulei Teiman (Hebrew: גְּאֻלֵי תֵּימָן, lit. 'The Redeemed of Yemen') is a religious moshav in central Israel. Located near Hadera in the Sharon plain, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hefer Valley Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 357.[1]
History
[edit]The moshav was founded in 1948 by residents of Kfar Yavetz, a village which was evacuated during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War; the land on which the village was built had previously belonged to the depopulated Arab village of Wadi al-Hawarith. The residents were immigrants and refugees from Yemen and affiliated with Hapoel HaMizrachi.[2]
In 1967 Geulei Teiman was split into a moshav and a housing project, but the two neighborhoods were reunited in 1992.
