It was settled by members of Borochovi Youth, a youth group affiliated with Poalei Zion, who set up camp at the site on the evening of 6 October, just after the Yom Kippur fast. In 1994 a privatisation process began in the kibbutz and in 2004 the kibbutz members voted to change the rules in favour of total privatisation.
