Al-Haybayb (Al-Qamishli) is a border city in northeastern Syria, located in Al-Hasakah Governorate, close to Gaziantep, Turkey, and strategically situated in the tri-border zone between Syria, Turkey, and Iraq. The city is an important center of the Kurdish population, with a predominantly Kurdish population, as well as multi-ethnic groups such as Arabs and Armenians living in the city. As a transportation hub in northeastern Syria with an airport and railroad connections, Habayb was once a regional distribution center for commerce and agriculture (e.g., wheat, cotton). Historically influenced by the Ottoman Empire and the French Mandate, the city is culturally diverse, but in recent years it has been hit by the Syrian Civil War and has faced a number of economic and social challenges. The city's landscape is a blend of traditional and modern architecture, and still retains a unique border town vibrancy.
