Kiryat Mal'akhi – Yoav railway station (
Kiryat Mal'akhi, and the adjoining Yoav Regional Council
. It opened in late 2018.
The station was envisioned as part of the renovation works for the railway to Beersheba,[2] but a budget had not been allocated, so only the station's platforms were originally built.
In 2016, a tender was published for the construction of the station.[3] In 2017, the proposed name was changed from Kfar Menahem to Kiryat Mal'akhi – Yoav, despite it being located 14 km (8.7 mi) from the city.[4]
