=== 1948 War and Aftermath ===
The Palestinian village of [[Al-Shawka al-Tahta]] existed just north from today's Dafna. In 1945, al-Shawka al-Tahta had a population of 200 people, all Palestinians, and the economy was primarily agricultural. On May 14th, 1948, during the [[Nakba]], Zionist forces under the command of [[Yigal Allon]] executed [[Operation Yiftach]]. Fear of attack, or being caught in the fighting, forced al-Shawka al-Tahta's population to flee. Afterwards, its land was annexed by the settlers of Dafna, and the Palestinians of Al-Shawka al-Tahta were prevented from returning home or reclaiming any stolen property, making their expulsion an example of [[ethnic cleansing]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Welcome To al-Shawka al-Tahta - الشوكة التحتا (א-שוכה א-תחתא) |url=https://www.palestineremembered.com/Safad/al-Shawka-al-Tahta/index.html |website=Palestine Remembered}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=The story of Al Shawka Al Tahta |url=https://today.visualizingpalestine.org/al-shawka-al-tahta/ |access-date=2024-08-26 |website=today.visualizingpalestine.org}}</ref>

After the [[1948 Palestine war]], Dafna took over part of the land belonging to the newly depopulated [[Palestinian people|Palestinian]] village of [[Al-Sanbariyya]].<ref>{{cite book|title=All That Remains:The Palestinian Villages Occupied and Depopulated by Israel in 1948|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_By7AAAAIAAJ |first=W.|last=Khalidi|author-link=Walid Khalidi|year=1992|location=[[Washington D.C.]]|publisher=[[Institute for Palestine Studies]]|isbn=0-88728-224-5|page=494}}</ref>
 
According to a 1949 book by the [[Jewish National Fund]], Dafna along with other border settlements of [[Dan, Israel|Dan]] and [[Kfar Szold]] held off the [[Syria]]n and [[Lebanon|Lebanese]] forces during the [[1948 Arab-Israeli war]]. However, the settlement was often bombarded and was said to have suffered heavy damage.<ref name="JNF 1948" />[[File:Tel Hai.jpg|thumb|right|Dafna in 1946, 1:250,000]]
 
The fictional kibbutz Gan Dafna, its name presumably a nod to the real-life kibbutz Dafna, figures prominently in [[Leon Uris]]'s book [[Exodus (Uris novel)|Exodus]], as the hometown of the protagonist Ari Ben Caanan.
