Located to the east of the Sea of Galilee, it falls under the municipal jurisdiction of Golan Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 876.[1] It is part of the Hapoel HaMizrachi movement.

The international community considers Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[3]
