Tebnine
Tibnin is a municipality spread across several hills located about 25 km (16 mi) east of Tyre, in the heart of what is known as "Jabal Amel" or the mountain of "Amel".
"Jabal Amel" designates the plateau situated on either side of the Litani river, a region strongly associated with its long-established Twelver Shia community.
