ESCR-Net - International Network of Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ESCR-Net) condemns the recent Israeli government attacks on Syrian Arab residents in the occupied Syrian Golan
Al-Marsad calls on the international community to strongly reject Israel’s latest attempts to obtain international acceptance of its illegal occupation and annexation of the Syrian Golan / Golan Heights.
Al-Marsad calls for an end to international travel restrictions that discriminate against the native Syrian population in the Occupied Syrian Golan / Golan Heights
Al-Marsad provided information on discriminatory Israeli policies that negatively impact the Syrian population in the five remaining Syrian villages in the Golan, including land appropriation; restrictions on land use for the building of houses, health, education and agriculture facilities; and discriminatory water distribution policies which limit consumption and charge higher prices than in Israeli settlements.
The overwhelming majority of properties and activities in the Golan advertised on these websites are located in Israeli settlements - with no information provided to potential visitors that Israeli settlements are considered illegal under international law.
