In the late 1930s and 1940s Lake Habbaniyah was used by Imperial Airways as a refueling point and hotel for flying boats flying from the United Kingdom to India.[2] Nearby on the banks of the Euphrates had already been established the Royal Air Force airbase of RAF Dhibban, later renamed RAF Habbaniya.[3]
It was the scene of action during the Rashid Ali rebellion Anglo-Iraqi War when the RAF trainee aircrew and troops stationed there effectively saw off the besieging Iraqi troops and subsequent German aerial attacks.[4]

Il lago Buhayrat al-Habbaniyah (arabo: بحيرة الثرثار) o lago Habbaniyya si trova in Iraq ad occidente di Baghdad e a circa 25 km ad ovest di Falluja, nel governatorato di al-Anbar. La sua superficie è pari a circa 140 km². Sin dai tempi antichi nel lago si sono raccolte le acque di inondazione del fiume Eufrate (che scorre a nord nord-est del lago e attraversa la città di Ramadi) e proprio a questo scopo nel 1956 fu costruito uno sbarramento sul fiume nei pressi di Ramadi.[ru] Эль-Хаббания (озеро)
