Yuval

Yuval (Hebrew: יוּבַל), also called Kfar Yuval (Hebrew: כְּפַר יוּבַל), is a moshav in the Galilee Panhandle, between Metula and Kiryat Shmona in northern Israel. It belongs to the Mevo'ot HaHermon Regional Council.

The moshav was founded in 1953 by evacuees from the Old City of Jerusalem who originally arrived from Kurdistan. It was named "Yuval" (creek) after the Jordan river's tributaries in the area and also referring to Jeremiah 17:8 ("sends out its roots by the creek"). In the early 1960s most of the founders abandoned the moshav, and it was repopulated by Indian Jewish immigrants from Kochi, India.
