Kafr Sabt

Kafr Sabt was a Palestinian Arab village located in the District of Tiberias, in Mandatory Palestine. Situated near the Sea of Galilee, it was depopulated during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War on May 4, 1948, as part of Operation Matateh.

Historically, the village was known for its strategic location and agricultural lands. It was positioned near important transportation routes and possessed fertile soil suitable for cultivation. The local economy was primarily based on agriculture, with crops like grains, fruits, and vegetables being the main source of income.

Prior to its depopulation, Kafr Sabt had a population of several hundred residents. The villagers primarily adhered to Islam. The village contained a mosque and a school.

Following its capture by Israeli forces, the village was destroyed and the land incorporated into new settlements. Today, no traces of the original village remain. The site is now part of the modern state of Israel.
