Occupied Syrian Golan, the eternal epic of steadfastness which rejects occupation and settlement

Damascus (ST): The people of the occupied Syrian Golan have always confronted the arrogance of the Israeli occupation and its illegal settlement activities. The people of Golan are now facing and fighting against the new Israeli settlement plan .This fight embodies their eternal and categorical rejection of all forms of occupation and settlement plans which aim to displace them and plunder their lands and identity. 

The liberated captive Midhat al-Saleh, the son of Majdal Shams town in the occupied Syrian Golan, said that what the occupation authorities are carrying out is an implementation of a plan that the Zionist entity has been setting up for a few years . The set-up of the so-called wind turbines under the pretext of electricity generation aims to seize the lands of Golan people, confiscate their properties and displace them from their lands in a flagrant violation of UN resolutions. 

He added that this project is one of the most dangerous projects that threaten the lives of the Syrians in the occupied Syrian Golan because of its adverse health and environmental consequences in addition to the damage caused to the agricultural lands in Majdal Shams, Bag’atha and Misa’deh stressing that Golan men, women, children and the elderly affirmed today their categorical rejection of this plan through the sit-in they staged to prevent the occupation troops from entering their lands. But the occupation authorities attacked the protestors causing the wounding of scores.

He concluded that the steadfastness of the people of Golan and their defence of their land and identity affirm that this land is Syrian and will remain so forever, calling on the international community to put pressure on Israel and halt its expansionist settlement plans which flagrantly violate UN relevant resolutions. 

Researcher in history and heritage Ahmad al-Hassan said that the occupied Syrian Golan is an integral part of Syrian Arab Republic territories and its sons would always remain adherent to their Syrian Arab identity despite the occupation repressive and expansionist policy.
