Jabalia Camp (Arabic: مخيّم جباليا) was established in 1948. It is located northeast of Gaza City, one kilometer away from the main road (Gaza-Jaffa). The camp is bordered to the west and south by the villages of Jabalia (Arabic: جباليا) and Al-Nazla (Arabic: النزلة), to the north by the village of Beit Lahia (Arabic: بيت لاهيا), and to the east by citrus orchards.
