Ash-Shuhada (Arabic: مثلث الشهداء, martyrs' triangle) is a Palestinian village in the Jenin Governorate of Palestine, located 5 km southwest of the city of Jenin, in the northern West Bank. According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics, the town had a population of 1,738 inhabitants in mid-year 2006 and 2,299 by 2017.[2]
Just east of the modern village (at grid 1758/2041), large amounts of pottery sherds have been found, all dating to the Middle Bronze Age IIB.[3]
In the wake of the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, and after the 1949 Armistice Agreements, Ash-Shuhada came under Jordanian rule.
Since the Six-Day War in 1967, Ash-Shuhada has been under Israeli occupation.
