Havot Yair (Template:Lang-he, Havot Yair lit, Yair's farms) is an Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Located near Nofim and Yakir, it falls under the jurisdiction of Shomron Regional Council. It is home to around 70 families.
It was first established in 1999 as an Israeli outpost, and named after Avraham (Yair) Stern, leader of the pre-state underground militant group Lehi, though the community's website notes the name of Yair ben Menashe. Although it was later evacuated, it was re-established in February 2001. According to Peace Now, the parent settlement of this outpost is Yakir and 17,666 square metres (190,160 sq ft) of the area that this outpost is built on is expropriated private Palestinian land. The Sasson Report reported that the Israeli Ministry of Housing and Construction had allocated 1 million NIS for the construction of several structures at the outpost.
In January 2021, Israel had regulated the outpost.
The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.
