Israeli outposts are unauthorized in Israeli law, while Israeli settlements are considered illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[2]

History

Founded in 1983 on Israeli state lands by non-Orthodox Jewish Israelis from the Beitar and Herut movements, the settlement is now home to about 120 families. The town is named after Aliza Begin, the wife of former Israeli prime minister Menachem Begin. The original name of the town had been Yoezer.^{[citation needed]}

It is now expanding into a settlement called Leshem.

Alei Zahav is founded on land which Israel confiscated from the Palestinian towns of Deir Ballut[3] and Kafr ad-Dik.[4]
