Hashmonaim
Hashmonaim (, lit. Hasmoneans) is an Israeli settlement located in the western section of the West Bank, off Route 443. Hashmonaim is located two kilometers east of Modi'in-Maccabim-Re'ut, midway between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv and is under the jurisdiction of the Mateh Binyamin Regional Council of Israel.
The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.
