Yitav (Hebrew: יִיטַ"ב, an abbreviation of Yad Yitzhak Tabenkin) is an Israeli settlement and moshav shitufi in the southern Jordan Valley of the West Bank.[2] Located just north of Jericho and west of the Palestinian village of al-Auja, it falls under the jurisdiction of Bik'at HaYarden Regional Council.[2] In 2022 it had a population of 261.
The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[3]
