Arab al-Nufay'at was a Palestinian Arab village in the Haifa Subdistrict. It was depopulated during the 1947–1948 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine on 10 April 1948. It was located 45 km south of Haifa.
The population in the 1945 statistics was 820, all Muslims,[2] with a total of 8,937 dunams of land; of which 1,471 was public land, the rest owned by Jews.[3] [5] [6]
In 1945 Mikhmoret was established on village lands, south of the site.[4]
On 6 April 1948, the Haganah implemented a new policy for the coastal plains, namely of clearing the whole area of its Arab inhabitants. On 10 April the villagers of Arab al-Nufay'at, together with the villagers of Arab al-Fuqara and Arab Zahrat al-Dumayri, were ordered to leave the area.[7]
In 1992 the village site was described: "The only traces left of the village is one house, which is still inhabited by an Arab family, and an old mulberry tree. The Israeli army has established a military camp that covers a large area near the site. The rest of the surrounding land is planted in melons, wheat, and barley. Some mulberry and eucalyptus trees grows near the site."[4]
