Fayed (Arabic: فايد) is a city in the Ismailia Governorate, Egypt.
[1] The town is located about 20 kilometers south of Ismailia on the western shore of the Great Bitter Lake.
During World War II, several camps for German prisoners of war, members of the German Afrika Korps and units deployed in Italy and Greece, and interned German citizens were located in and around Fayed.
Since June 1941, Fayed has been home to a British military cemetery with some 1800 graves for the dead of the garrisons stationed there as well as the German prisoners of the camps.
The cemetery is maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.
