Al-Bahariyah (Arabic: البحارية) is a village in eastern Ghouta, 20 kilometers (12 mi) east of Damascus city center. The village is administratively a part of the Douma District in the Rif Dimashq Governorate. Damascus International Airport is located 13 kilometers (8.1 mi) south of Al-Bahariyah.[1] The village was largely destroyed in August 2013 and was the site of an alleged chemical weapons attack during the Syrian Civil War.[2]
