Iqrit was a Palestinian Christian village, located 25 kilometres (16 miles) northeast of Acre, it was seized and forcefully depopulated then razed by the Israeli Forces,
All of its Christian inhabitants were forced to flee to Lebanon and neighboring Palestinian villages after they were expelled by Jewish forces in 1948-1951. Descendents to this day maintain an outpost in the village church, and bury their dead in its cemetery. All attempts to cultivate its lands are uprooted by the Israeli Lands Administration
