Sitria (Template:Lang-he) is a moshav in central Israel. Located in the Shephelah near Rehovot, it falls under the jurisdiction of Gezer Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 967.

The moshav was founded on Lag BaOmer in 1949 by 95 families who had immigrated from Poland and Romania after staying at a camp in Cyprus. The moshav is built on the land of the Palestinian village of Abu al-Fadl, which was depopulated in 1948.
