According to the Palestinian historian Walid Khalidi, the village remaining structures on the village land are:
"About twenty houses from the village are now occupied by the residents of Moshav Shomera. Some of the roofs have been remodeled and given a gabled form. Stones from the original houses embellish the roof of the central shelter of the moshav."
