Baraghida

Baraghida (Arabic: براغيدة, romanizedBarāghīdah) is a village in northern Aleppo Governorate, northwestern Syria. Located halfway between Azaz and al-Rai, some 45 kilometres (28 mi) north of the city of Aleppo and 4 km (2.5 mi) south of the border to the Turkish province of Kilis. The village administratively belongs to Nahiya Sawran in Azaz District. Nearby localities include Kafr Ghan [ar] 3 km (1.9 mi) to the west, Dudiyan 7 km (4.3 mi) to the east and Sawran 8 km (5.0 mi) to the south.

In the 2004 census, Baraghida had a population of 995. The village is inhabited by Turkmen. In late 19th century, traveler Martin Hartmann noted Baraghida as a Turkish village of 10 houses, then located in the Ottoman nahiyah of Azaz-i Turkman.
