History
Template:Expand Hebrew The village was founded on 10 April 1932 as a kibbutz. It was named for Rabbi Ze'ev Yavetz, a founder of the Mizrachi movement.[1]
As the kibbutz was situated on the front, opposite the Iraqi army sent as auxiliaries during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, the inhabitants were evacuated for their safety, and the kibbutz was turned into army base.[2] The residents resettled in Geulei Teiman and the village was rebuilt as a moshav in 1951, incorporating within it new immigrants from Yemen and from central Europe.[2]
Kfar Yavetz is located in the heart of the Triangle, near the Wadi Ara highway.
On 7 July 2003 Mazal Afari, 65, a resident of Kfar Yavetz was killed in her home in a suicide bombing carried out by Islamic Jihad. Afari, a mother of eight, was waiting for her husband and sons to return from synagogue. The terrorist slipped into the house unnoticed and detonated a bomb he was carrying in a bag.[3] Three of her grandchildren were injured in the attack.[4] The house was destroyed in the blast.[5]
