Fiq (Arabic: فيق) is a former Syrian town administratively belonging to Al Quneitra Governorate, located in the Golan Heights.[1] Residing at an altitude of 349 meters (1,145 ft), the Israeli settlement, kibbutz, Afik was built close by.[1] As of 1966[update], Fiq had a population of 2,769 [2], but has since declined.
