Yarmouk River

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Yarmouk River (Arabic:"Nahr Al-Yarmuk"; Hebrew:נהר הירמוך, "Nehar HaYarmukh"; Greek:Hieromax) is one of the three 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 Jordan Valley and between Syria and Jordan further upstream. It is the southern boundary of the Golan Heights.
