Wikipedia description:
Giv'at Ze'ev (Hebrew: גִּבְעַת זְאֵב) is an urban Israeli settlement in the West Bank, five kilometers northwest of Jerusalem. The settlement was founded in 1977 on the site of the abandoned Jordanian military camp, adjacent to the site of ancient Gibeon. While it lies within the borders of the Matte Binyamin Regional Council, it is a separate municipal entity. In 2022 it had a population of 21,097. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.
