Eshkol Regional Council

The Eshkol Regional Council (, Mo'atza Ezorit Eshkol) is a regional council in the north-western Negev, in Israel's Southern District. The regional council's territory lies midway between Ashkelon and Beersheba, bounded on the west by the Gaza Strip while the eastern border abuts the territory of the Bnei Shimon Regional Council. The region has been a frequent target of rocket attacks from nearby Gaza Strip, causing frequent damage to farms and some structures within the region.
