Ganim

Ganim (גַּנִּים) was an Israeli settlement in the northern West Bank, just west of the large Palestinian city of Jenin, under the administrative local government of the Shomron Regional Council. Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, are illegal under international law.

History
The settlement was founded in 1983 by members of Betar. Its name was derived from the assumed biblical name of Jenin, the nearby city, which was originally called Ein Ganim (Anem) of the Tribe of Issachar. For this reason, Ein Ganim was also the name given to an Israeli community which today is a neighborhood of the Israeli city of Petah Tikva.

Unilateral disengagement
The residents of Ganim were evacuated from their homes and the synagogue was dismantled by the Israeli army as part of Israel's disengagement in 2005.
