Hodiya (Hebrew: הוֹדִיָּה) is a moshav in southern Israel. Located near Ashkelon, it falls under the jurisdiction of Hof Ashkelon Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 815.[1]

History

The moshav was founded in 1949 by immigrants from India. Today most of the residents are immigrants, or descendants of immigrants from Iran and Yemen.[citation needed]

It was built on the lands of the depopulated Palestinian village of Julis.[2]
