Sdei Avraham (Hebrew: שְׂדֵי אַבְרָהָם, lit. Avraham Fields) is a moshav in southern Israel. Located in the Hevel Shalom area of the north-western Negev desert near the Gaza Strip border, it falls under the jurisdiction of Eshkol Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 211.
The moshav was founded in 1982 by evacuees from Sinai and was initially named Yesodot HaDarom (Hebrew: יְסוֹדוֹת הַדָּרוֹם, lit. Foundations of the South), but was later renamed after Avraham Hirtzfeld, a leader of Mapai.[1]
