The North District of Israel, highlighted.

North District, or Northern District (Hebrew: מחוז הצפון, mehoz hatzafon), is one of six administrative districts in Israel, with a land area of 3,324 square km (3,484 land and water), as well as 1,154 square km in the Golan Heights, bringing the total land area to 4,478 square km (4,638 total).

The Golan Heights is recognized by the Israel Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) as part of Israel, which makes it part of the North District for all administrative purposes, although the international community and United Nations do not recognize the Golan Heights as Israeli territory, and consequently, as part of the North District.
