Status of The Village Today
According to the Palestinian historian Walid Khalidi, the village remaining structures on the village land are:
"Only three houses remain; two are deserted and one has been turned into a warehouse. One of the deserted houses is a two-story stone structure that has a large, triple-arched front porch."
- The village site with some remaining houses, 1987

Scanned from "All That Remains" by Dr. Walid Khalidi 1 - A view for a destroyed house, soon after ethnic cleansing and destruction the village was turned to a park (as usually done) by the JNF to hide the crime.
