Harasha
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Harasha, or Haresha (Hebrew: חרשה), is a Jewish village and Israeli settlement in the Binyamin region of the northern section of the West Bank, located in the Dolev region near Talmon. At 770 metres, the view from the village reaches Hadera in the northwest, Ashkelon in the southwest, and Jerusalem in the east.
Harasha was founded in January 1999 by a group of students from Mercaz haRav with assistance from the Amana settlement organization.
About 35 families, including over 200 people, live in Harasha. The occupation of most of the adults is in education, either studying or teaching. The local public services provided include a synagogue, a kollel, a mikvah, nurseries and kindergartens. The village receives its municipal services from the Matte Binyamin Regional Council.
