Nofei Nehemia (Hebrew: נוֹפֵי נְחֶמְיָה) is an Israeli outpost in the West Bank, in the jurisdiction of the Shomron Regional Council in the northern West Bank. It is officially within the boundaries of Rehelim, a nearby Israeli settlement.[1] First established in 2002, it is situated adjacent to Rechelim on Route 60, between Kfar Tapuach and Eli.[2] The village also lies adjacent to the Palestinian towns of Iskaka and Yasuf. A few dozen families live on the village.

Israeli outposts are illegal under international law and also under Israeli law.[2][3]
