HaHotrim ( Hebrew: הַחוֹתְרִים, lit. 'The Rowers') is a kibbutz in northern Israel. Located near Tirat Carmel, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hof HaCarmel Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 903. [1]
The beginnings of the kibbutz were in December 1941, with the formation of a work company near Kiryat Haim by Jewish refugees from Czechoslovakia and Germany. [2] The kibbutz was established in 1952 on the land of a depopulated Palestinian village named al-Tira. [3] [4]
