Adora (West Bank)

This page is subject to the extended confirmed restriction related to the Arab-Israeli conflict. Adora (Hebrew: אֲדוֹרָה) is an Israeli settlement organised as a community settlement in the Judean Mountains in the southern West Bank, northwest of Hebron. Established in 1984, the community ideologically identifies with the Herut–Betar farming organization and falls under the jurisdiction of Har Hevron Regional Council. Under the terms of the Oslo Accords of 1993 between Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization, Adora was designated Area "C" under full Israeli civil and security control. In 2022 its population was 515. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.
