Al-Khisas, also known as Khisas or Khissas, was a Palestinian Arab village in the Safad Subdistrict in Mandatory Palestine. It was located 31 kilometers (19 mi) northeast of Safed on a natural terrace about 100 meters (330 ft) wide that formed when Lake al-Hula receded. To the west of the village was a valley known as Wadi al-Hasibani through which ran the Hasbani River.

The al-Khisas massacre took place in al-Khisas in Mandatory Palestine on December 18, 1947, near to the Syrian border and was carried out by Haganah militiamen, possibly from Palmach.
