Marj Al-Ghazal

Marj Al-Ghazal (Arabic: مرج الغزال, Hebrew: מרג' אל-גזאל) is a Palestinian village in the Jericho Governorate in the West Bank, located 34.8 kilometers (21.6 mi) north of Jericho.

According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS), Marj Al-Ghazal had a population of 243 in the 2017 census.

Nearby Palestinian localities include az-Zubaidat to the northeast, Al-Jiftlik to the south and west.

[2] In the wake of the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, and after the 1949 Armistice Agreements, Marj al-Ghazal came under Jordanian rule.

In 1970, Israel confiscated 509 dunum of village land in order to construct the Israeli settlement of Argaman.
