Occupied Golan – A Palestinian delegation representing the Higher Follow-up Committee in the occupied territories of 1948 on Friday visited the occupied Syrian Golan to express solidarity with the people there in the confrontation of the Israeli occupation scheme of building wind turbines on their farmlands.

Chairman of the Higher Follow-up Committee Mohammad Baraka said in a statement to a SANA reporter that the arrogant and racist practices of the occupation against the people in Golan and Palestine escalate day after day, pointing out that there will be no solution to this issue except through ending the occupation.

For his part researcher Issam Makhoul stressed the strong connection between the Palestinian and the Syrian peoples in the confrontation of the Israeli conspiracies which target both of them, asserting that through their steadfastness and adherence to their land and rights the two peoples will be able to foil all the Israeli schemes.
