Dayrabun[nb 1] (Arabic: ديربون,[4] Kurdish: دێره‌بوون, romanized: Dêrebûn)[5][6] is a village in Dohuk Governorate in Kurdistan Region, Iraq.

[10] The village's population were adherents of the Church of the East until converted to Chaldean Catholicism in the 19th century, likely simultaneously with the conversion of the neighbouring town of Faysh Khabur.

[11] In late July 1933, a number of armed Assyrians crossed over the river Tigris into Syria near the village,[12] and two battalions of Iraqi infantry, two squadrons of cavalry, and one section of artillery were stationed at Dayrabun to intercept them on their return to Iraq.

[12] The Iraqi army aimed to destroy Dayrabun, but was spared after the intervention of the Chaldean Catholic Patriarch Yousef VI Emmanuel II Thomas.

[11] The village was largely destroyed by fire in 1936, and was rebuilt in its current location in the early 1940s, at which time Assyrian refugees from Russia settled at Dayrabun.
