The moshav was established by a group of settlers from Judea and Samaria and other places, who welcomed the government's intention to hand over the opening of Rafah and Sinai to Egypt, as agreed in the peace agreement between Israel to Egypt Peace Treaty. It was the youngest settlement among the Sinai settlements. On December 24, 1981, a Torah scroll was brought to the synagogue.The secretary of the moshav was Yigal Kirshenzaft, who was previously a resident of the city Yamit and was sent on a mission by the rabbi of the city yeshiva Israel Ariel. Among the residents of the moshav was also Baruch Marzel, who was entrusted with maintaining wireless contact with those who opposed the evacuation by sea and updating the residents on military operations. The coordinator of the settlement was Michael Ben Horin.
