History
Ein Besor was an Egyptian First Dynasty staging post along the "ways of Horus" trade route in the northern Negev. The staging post was contemporary with Tell es-Sakan.[2][3] The modern moshav was established in 1982. Some of the residents were from Sadot, an Israeli settlement in the Sinai Peninsula evacuated after signing of the Egypt–Israel peace treaty.[4]
On 7 October 2023, Ein HaBesor was attacked by Hamas fighters. The moshav's civil defense team, with only four M16 rifles, repelled the attack.[5]
