Bnei Netzarim (Hebrew: בְּנֵי נְצָרִים, lit. Sons of Netzarim) is a moshav in the southern Hevel Shalom area in Israel. It was founded by evacuees from villages depopulated in Israel's 2005 disengagement plan, primarily Netzarim. Some of Netzarim's residents were settled in Yevul following the disengagement and decided to found a new village in the same region.

The first residents started home construction in 2008,[3] and the moshav was officially founded and recognized in 2010.[1] In 2015 its population was 544.
