Arougot Colony

Arougot is a moshav located in southern occupied Palestine, near Kiryat Malakhi. The moshav was established in 1949 by Jewish immigrants from Poland and Romania on the lands of the depopulated Palestinian village of Qastina. It derives its name from the Book of Ezekiel. As of 2022, the settlement’s population was 1,154 settlers.
