Israeli Turkmens also called Israeli Turks or Israeli Turkish people are ethnic Turkish people from the Republic of Turkey settled in Israel during 2000s.

Regarding people of ethnic Turkish who lived in Palestine prior to the establishment of the State of Israel, see Turks in Palestine.

Diaspora

During and after the 1947–1949 Palestine war, some Turkmen fled the region and settled in Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon.^[2]

During the British mandate of Palestine, the Turk tribes like Bani-Saidan and Bani Alaqama lived mostly in the Jezreel Valley region; and, up until the Israeli conquest in 1967, Turkmen tribes lived in the Golan Heights.^[3]
