History

Kibbutz Alumim

Kibbutz Alumim was established in 1966 as a border settlement with Egypt by Bnei Akiva members from a Nahal gar'in. Its land had belonged to the Religious Kibbutz Movement since the 1940s and was previously farmed by kibbutz Be'erot Yitzhak, which was relocated as a result of its destruction in the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.

Over the years other Nahal groups joined the kibbutz, as well as groups of immigrants from World Bnei Akiva. The largest groups from abroad came from the United Kingdom. Today Alumim has about 140 members, around 70 families. About 20% of the membership are immigrants from the UK.

Through ninth grade, the children of Kibbutz Alumim attend Da'at Regional school in Kibbutz Sa'ad.

The Alumim massacre was an attack which took place on 7 October 2023, as part of the surprise attack on Israel by Hamas and the Islamic Jihad. During the attack, approximately 30 Hamas militants infiltrated Alumim. The goal of Hamas was to kill and kidnap Israeli civilians.The infiltrators killed 19 foreign workers from Thailand and Nepal, and kidnapped 8 people, before the kibbutz's security team fought back. Two brothers from the Israeli city Beersheba who were IDF service came to participate in the kibbutz's defense during the fighting on their own initiative and were killed. The fighting continued for six hours until IDF troops arrived and cleared the kibbutz of militants. All of the Hamas infiltrators were killed.

The economy of Alumim is based on agriculture and tourism. Alumim has maintained the classic kibbutz collective life style. Each member receives an allowance based on his or her needs (size of family, age of children etc.). The allowance is not connected to the occupation of the member. There are no monetary incentives for any form of work. Chores such as serving in the dining hall, guard duty at night, milking the cows at the weekend are done on a rota basis. They produce and sell carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other organic products [1] as well as avocado, chickens, and peppers.[2] The kibbutz guest house has 22 self-contained apartments.[3]
