Kurd Mountain or Kurd Dagh (Kurdish: Çiyayê Kurmênc;[1] Arabic: جبل الأكراد, romanized: jabal al-ʾakrād; Turkish: Kürt Dağı, officially Kurt Dağı) is a highland region in northwestern Syria and southeastern Turkey.

The Kurd Mountain should not be confused with the neighboring Jabal al-Akrad, which is located further southwest in Latakia Governorate.

[5] In the 1930s, Kurdish Alevis who fled the persecution of the Turkish Army during the Dersim Massacre, settled in Mabeta.

[7][1] Jabal al-Akrad was attested in the book of Dhikrayati ean bilad 'alf laylat walayla of the French commercial attaché in Aleppo between the years 1548-1556,[8] as well as in Konstantin Bazili's book, Syria and Palestine Under Ottoman Rule (1861) on the events of the end of Ibrahim Pasha's occupation of the areas of Kurd Mountain.
