The Yarmouk River (Arabic:"nahr al-yarmuk"; Hebrew:נהר הירמוך, "nehar hayarmukh"; Greek:Hieromax) is one of the two main tributaries which enter the Jordan River between the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea (the other being the Jabbok). It forms the border between Israel and Jordan in the southern Golan Heights and the northern Jordan Valley. Syria claims its western banks in the Golan Heights although according to the international border set by Britain and France in 1923, it was part of the British Mandate of Palestine, and thus a part of Israel.
