Israel has spent decades monopolizing the tourism industry in the occupied Syrian Golan to solidify its claim of sovereignty over the region. Al-Marsad’s newest report, Monopolizing the Sites – The Politics of Tourism in the Occupied Syrian Golan, discusses this issue in depth. The report shows how Israel has hijacked and manipulated the tourism industry in the Golan to benefit itself while harming the local Syrian population. With this report, Al-Marsad hopes to expose the discriminatory policies of the Israeli government and empower local Syrian tourism initiatives.
