History

History
The community was forced out of Be'er Sheba in 1948, after which they lived in the Hebron region until relocating to the Bethlehem region due to a lack of water and grazing lands. From there, they traveled to the Jerusalem region and finally to Khan Al-Ahmar. Since 1990, they have been living permanently in Al-Nabi Mussa. They are afraid to leave and risk their land and homes being confiscated.
