The opening as it read in 2025

Village in Tulkarm, Mandatory Palestine Al-Jalama ( Arabic : الجلمه ) or Khirbat al-Jalama ( Arabic : خربة الجلمه ) was a Palestinian Arab village 8.5 kilometres (5.3 mi) north of Tulkarm . Situated close to the eastern banks of a valley of the same name ( Wadi Jalama), it was inhabited during the Crusader and Mamluk periods, and again in Ottoman period by villagers from nearby Attil. Al-Jalama's population was expelled by the Israeli military on 1 March 1950 after it fell under Israeli rule as a result of the 1949 armistice agreement that ended the 1948 Arab–Israeli War . It was subsequently built over by the Israeli kibbutz of Lehavot Haviva .
