Al-Manshiyya (Arabic: المنشية) was a Palestinian Arab village in the Tiberias Subdistrict, located 11 kilometres south of Tiberias.[3] It was probably depopulated at the same time as neighbouring Al-'Ubaydiyya, in the 1947–1948 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine.[4] Manshiyya was located 1 km south-west of Umm Junieh or Khirbat Umm Juni.
