@ Huldra: Like nearby Hunin, al-Khalisa was still under French control at the time of the 1922 census, which is why it doesn't appear. It would be nice to have a list of such villages (and a map) but it is not simple to do that without jumping into OR. Zero talk 23:41, 2 September 2015 (UTC)
The caption of the photo refers to "Halsa" police station and to a raid on 13/04/1948. Given the other photos in this album - e.g. Nabi Yusha - "Halsa" must have been in the Safed area. The geography looks right - high ground to the Lebanon border. It is clearly not the village but could there have been a police station associated with it? Are there any other suggestions?

There was a large British police station about 0.6km NNW of Al Khalisa. The ground starts to rise rapidly to the west of the police station, more than 500m in less than 2km, so if the photo was taken from the east it could look like this. Zero talk 23:45, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
