The District of Tulkarm

Umm Khalid

Much of the village land has been engulfed by the suburbs of the city of Netanya. The settlements of Gan Chefer, and Nira, were merged in 1953 to form a single, large settlement, Sha’ar Chefer. The village site has become part of city of Netanya. Some houses remain and are used either as residences or for commercial purposes such as warehouses.
