Alonei HaBashan (Hebrew: אַלּוֹנֵי הַבָּשָׁן) is an Israeli settlement located in the eastern Golan Heights, organized as a moshav shitufi,[2] under the administration of Israel. The settlement was established after Israel occupied the area in the Six Day War in 1967. It falls under the municipal jurisdiction of the Golan Regional Council, and is the easternmost locality within Israeli-controlled territory. In 2022 it had a population of 518.[1] It is part of the Hapoel HaMizrachi movement.[3]

The international community considers Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[4]
