Memorial to the Jewish Fighting Women, Cenotaph and heritage site in Hof Ashkelon Regional Council, Israel.

The Memorial to the Jewish Fighting Women is located in southern Israel and was built to honor women who actively participated in armed resistance. The site combines symbolic elements with information areas that document their stories and contributions.

The monument was inaugurated in 1998, fifty years after the Battle of Nitzanim, on the initiative of Yitzhak Pundak, commander of the 53rd Battalion of the Givati Brigade, who took part in the defence of Nitzanim. It commemorates three fighters killed in that battle: the radio operator Mira Ben-Ari, the medic Shulamit Dorchin and the fighter Devora Epstein. It is also dedicated to women and their contribution to the country's security forces.

The memorial is named Yad La'isha Ha'lohemet, "a memorial to the fighting woman". Along the staircase and plaza linking the Nitzanim palace to the monument stand quotations from six fighting women of the past: Sarah Aharonson, Hannah Szenes, Mira Ben-Ari, Esther Adiri, Sarah Chizik and Bracha Fuld. Beside the bronze figures are the spots where Mira Ben-Ari and the medic Shulamit Dorchin fell.

The memorial stands at the Old Nitzanim site, reached from the Nitzanim palace by a staircase and a wide plaza; the quotations from six women fighters line both sides of the stairs. Mira Ben-Ari's and Shulamit Dorchin's fall spots lie beside the bronze figures. The site was inaugurated in 1998, fifty years after the battle.

The bronze figures were made by sculptor Shosh Hefetz, and the monument was initiated by Yitzhak Fundek, commander of the 53rd Battalion of the Givati Brigade, who took part in defending Nitzanim. Beside the sculptures are the spots where Mira Ben-Ari and the medic Shulamit Dorchin fell.
