Sderot (Hebrew: שְׂדֵרוֹת, Hebrew pronunciation: [sdeˈʁot], lit. Boulevards) is a western Negev city and former development town in the Southern District of Israel. In 2017 it had a population of 25,138.[1]
Sderot was originally founded in 1951 as a transit camp called Gabim Dorot for Israeli immigrants, primarily from Kurdistan and Iran, who numbered 80 families.[2] The development was located on the land of the Palestininan village of Najd which was depopulated during 1948 Arab-Israeli War[3] and served as part of a chain of settlements designed to block infiltration from Gaza.[4][5] Permanent housing was completed three years after the transit camp’s establishment in 1954[5]. The town was renamed Sderot after the Eucalyptus boulevard planted along the length of the town,[6] whose planting provided employment to the residents of the settlement.
