Dolev (Hebrew: דולב, דֹּלֶב. lit. Plane tree) is a communal Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Located near Jerusalem, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Binyamin Regional Council. In 2007 it had a population of 1,100. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[1]
Dolev was established by five families during Sukkot of 1983. It was named after nearby Nahal Dolev.
