Alumim (Hebrew: עלומים, lit. 'Youth') is a religious kibbutz located in the northwestern Negev desert in southern Israel, near the Gaza Strip. The kibbutz was founded in 1966 by members of Bnei Akiva. It falls under the jurisdiction of Sdot Negev Regional Council. In 2024 it had a population of 578.

During the October 7 attacks by Hamas, which cost five volunteer defenders their lives, there was a massacre at the kibbutz, with 22 workers from Thailand and Nepal murdered and 2 kidnapped. Of the two, Bipin Joshi was confirmed deceased on 14th October 2025.
