Village Today

According to the Palestinian historian Walid Khalidi, the village remaining structures on the village land are:
"No more than ten houses remain. Some are inhabited by Jewish families, one is used as a workshop for car repair, and others are deserted. One of the occupied houses has a large front door and a garret with a slanted roof extending along the short side. A second house is quite long and has a large number of windows of various sizes."
