Shebaa (Arabic: شبعا; also transliterated Chebaa) is a town on the south-eastern tip of Lebanon. It has a largely Sunni Muslim population of 25,000 people. It is situated at an altitude of approximately 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) above sea level; spread across two steep rocky mountainsides.[1] It lies adjacent to the contested Shebaa farms—which sit between the town and the Golan Heights.[2] Before 1967, residents of Shebaa farmed in the disputed Shebaa farms territory.[3]
The town houses several thousand Syrian refugees.[4]
