Ghoraniyeh or El Ghorahiyeh is a crossing (ford) by the Jordan River south of Wadi Nimrin on the left bank[1] where it joins Wadi an Nuway'imah (Nuei'ameh, Nu'eima, etc.) on the right bank.[2] During the Ottoman times there was a bridge, destroyed during the World War I by the retreating Ottomans. During the war it was an important bridgehead.
