Arabo or Arapo (, 1863–1895), born Arakel Mkhitarian, was an Armenian fedayi of the late 19th century. He was a member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF) political party.

Arabo was born in the village of Kurter in the region of Sasun in the Bitlis vilayet. Arabo studied at the Arakelots Monastery school in Mush. Beginning in the late-1880s, he led the Armenian fedayi groups in Sasun and Taron. Initially, Arabo had formed a group modeled on those of the Kurdish bandits, to rob their enemies in turn and becoming a folk hero among Armenians. However, he became a revolutionary during his time in the Caucasus.
