Netu'a is an agricultural colony (moshav) established in 1966 on the ruins of the depopulated Palestinian village of  Deir al-Qassi in the district of Acre, near the also-depopulated village of al-Mansura and the Lebanese border. Its inhabitants were gathered from several surrounding agricultural settlements as part of a broader plan to reinforce Jewish settlement in the Galilee region. As of 2022, the colony had a population of 323 settlers.

These border settlements in northern occupied Palestine, including Netu'a, were subjected to attacks by Lebanese and Palestinian resistance forces operating from southern Lebanon, leading to the evacuation of their residents.
