Rael (Arabic: راعل, romanized: Rā'aīl), also spelled Ra'il, is a village in northern Aleppo Governorate, northwestern Syria. Located halfway between Azaz and al-Rai, some 40 kilometres (25 mi) north of the city of Aleppo and 8 km (5.0 mi) south of the border to the Turkish province of Kilis, the village administratively belongs to Nahiya Sawran in Azaz District. Nearby localities include Ihtaimlat 3 km (1.9 mi) to the south and Dabiq 5 km (3.1 mi) to the south. In the 2004 census, Rael had a population of 1,750.[1] The village is inhabited by Turkmen.[2] Traveler Martin Hartmann noted the village as a Turkish village in late 19th century.[3]
