Sakhnin (سخنين) is an Arab town in northern Israel. It is located in the Lower Galilee, about 23 km east of Akko. Population: 23,000 (2003 est.)
It is located on the site of the Jewish town Sikhnin (or Sikhni), which flourished during the Roman conquest (2nd century CE).
During the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, Sakhnin surrendered to Israeli forces on July 18, 1948, during Operation Dekel, but was re-captured by Arab forces shortly afterwards. It finally fell without battle into Israeli hands in October 1948.
