Bayt Nuba

Bayt Nuba (Levantine Arabic: بيت نوبا, romanized: Bēt Nūba) is a depopulated Palestinian village located halfway between the Old City of Jerusalem and Ramla. During the Six-Day War of 1967, the Israel Defense Forces ethnically cleansed Bayt Nuba in the Naksa and replaced it with the Jewish-only Israeli settlement of Mevo Horon.
