Jezzine District
District in the South Governorate of Lebanon From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Jezzine District (Arabic: قضاء جزين) is a district in the South Governorate of Lebanon. The capital is Jezzine.
76% of registered voters (59642) in the district are Christians. Of those, 60% are Maronite, 14% Greek Melkite Catholic, and the rest are minorities (Armenian Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Evangelic, Protestants, etc...). The remaining 24% are Druze, Shiite (mainly), and Sunni voters.[2] This distinguishes the district from the rest of Southern Lebanon, which is approximately 90% Muslim. Some notable towns other than its capital Jezzine include Kfarhouna, Aichiyé, Bkassine, Kfar Falous, Jernaya and Homsiyé.
