Mahin or Mheen (Arabic: مهين, romanized: Mahīn) is a town in central Syria, administratively part of the Homs Governorate, south of Homs. It is situated on an oasis in the Syrian Desert, between Sadad to the west and al-Qaryatayn to the east, adjacent to the ancient village of Huwwarin. According to the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Mahin had a population of 11,064 in the 2004 census.[1] Its inhabitants are predominantly Sunni Muslims.[2]
In mid-late 2015, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant captured Mahin.[3] The city was regained by the Syrian Army on 29 December 2015 during the late offensive of Homs in 2015.[4]
