The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[1]
History
The settlement was established in June 1981 by the Mishkei Herut Beitar organization, after the first ten homes were complete.[2] It was named for the wild almond trees that grow in the area.
In 2006, Israeli Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz cited Shaked as one of the settlements that would be included in Israel's final borders under a peace plan with the Palestinians.[3]
In 2011, a resident of Shaked, 15-year-old Shahar Sagi, won a silver medal in the Loralux international judo competition in Luxembourg.[4]
