Revava (Hebrew: רְבָבָה), is an Orthodox Jewish Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Built over land confiscated from the nearby Palestinian cities of Deir Istiya[2] and Haris,[3] it falls under the jurisdiction of Shomron Regional Council. In 2022, it had a population of 2,950.

The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[4]
