Srifa is a town in southern Lebanon, located about 15 kilometers northeast of the city of Tyre, and is under the jurisdiction of the South Lebanese Governorate. The area is predominantly agricultural, producing olives, grains and fruits, and retains a traditional rural appearance. Srifa has been affected by regional conflicts on several occasions in its history, notably during the 2006 Lebanese-Israeli War when it was severely damaged, but has been gradually rebuilt and restored. The local population is predominantly Shia Muslim and the community has a deep culture with mosques and historical sites. Its geographic proximity to the Israeli border makes it strategic and often the center of attention. Srifa demonstrates the resilience and simplicity of life in the Lebanese countryside and is an important window into the social fabric of the south.
