Golan Heights: Nearly Half of Syrian Villagers Now Hold Israeli Citizenship

Nearly half of the residents in four Syrian villages in the occupied Golan Heights now hold Israeli citizenship, with 6,040 obtaining it between early 2025 and October 2026. This rise, bringing the total to 12,269 out of 26,154 residents, is linked to the war in Syria and Israeli efforts to encourage naturalization. A new Israeli office has opened in Mas'ada to facilitate this process, despite historical resistance and some ongoing local reservations.
