Haspin (Hebrew: חַסְפִּין) is an Israeli settlement and a moshav located in the southern Golan Heights. It was built in 1978. It falls under the municipal jurisdiction of the Golan Regional Council. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[2]
