Mevo Beitar (Hebrew: <templatestyles src="Script/styles_hebrew.css" />מְבוֹא בֵּיתָר, lit. Beitar Gateway) is a moshav shitufi in central Israel. Located ten kilometres south-west of Jerusalem in the Jerusalem corridor, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Yehuda Regional Council. In 2012 it had a population of 523.[1]
History
The village was established on 24 April 1950 by native Israelis and immigrants from Argentina who were members of the Beitar movement, including Matityahu Drobles, later a member of the Knesset. It was founded on the land of the depopulated Arab village of al-Qabu.[2] Located around a kilometre from the Green Line, it was a border settlement until the Six-Day War.
