A town located in the South of Israel near Ashkelon and Ashdod. It has a mainly Sphardic Jewish population but has had an increase in Russian Jews since the fall of the USSR. Kids in Kiryat
Gat like to go play basketball, walk around, party, and eat schwarma at the best schwarma place in Israel, Toro, which is located at the central bus station. The city is located next to a large industrial complex and the nearest large city is Be'er-Sheva. The town is within range of rocket
fire by Hamas from the Gaza strip and has experienced rocket
fire during past conflicts. The coolest
people in all of Israel live in Kiryat
Gat. They are all
fun to hang-out with and they know where all the coolest places to go are.
