(Redirected from Ovda (Israel))
Uvda (Hebrew: עובדה) is the name of a region in the southern Negev desert, directly north of Eilat.
The name derives from the Hebrew word uvda (meaning fact). The region was captured during Operation Uvda in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, when the Israel Defense Forces entered the area with the stated aim of establishing 'facts on the ground', hence the name.
