'Ayn Fit (Arabic: عين فيت), was a Syrian Alawite village situated in the northwestern Golan Heights.[1][2]

History[edit]

'Ayn Fit was established during the early 17th century.[3] The inhabitants were forcibly expelled during the Six Day war and the village was destroyed by Israel.[4] The population before the war was around 1500 people.[3]
