Israel Opens Golan Heights Access to Syrian Druze Workers

Israel's defense ministry announced plans to permit Syrian Druze workers entry into the Israeli Occupied Golan Heights. However, the timeline for issuing these permits remains unspecified.

In a significant policy shift, Israel has announced that it will allow Syrian Druze workers into the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. This move comes as part of ongoing efforts to enhance cross-border exchanges between the regions.

A statement released by Israel's defense ministry confirmed the decision on Sunday, although details regarding the commencement of permit issuance were not provided. This development marks a step towards improving relations between Israel and the Druze community.

Despite the approval, the lack of a specified timeline for permit distribution leaves many questions unanswered. Observers note that the situation appears fluid as official coordination continues.
