Fallujah

Fallujah, Historical city in Al-Anbar Governorate, Iraq.

Fallujah sits on the eastern bank of the Euphrates River, roughly 65 kilometers west of Baghdad within Al Anbar Governorate. Mosques dot the cityscape while residential neighborhoods extend along the riverside.

The settlement rose on the foundations of a Persian site and developed into a center of rabbinic learning during Sasanian times. Over the centuries, shifting powers and regional conflicts reshaped the urban structure.

Residents maintain daily routines shaped by community ties and long-standing regional customs. Markets offer goods that reflect techniques passed down through many generations.

Visitors should check current security conditions before entering the region. Many areas remain under reconstruction, so access and infrastructure can vary.

Researchers have studied unusual health phenomena observed among the population after 2004. These investigations continue to draw international medical experts interested in long-term effects of regional events.
