Following Israel’s occupation of the Syrian Golan in 1967, approximately 130,000 native Syrian inhabitants were forcibly transferred by the Israeli military or displaced by fighting, from their homes and forbidden from returning. The Israeli military then began a wide- spread campaign to demolish their homes, resulting in the destruction 340 villages and farms and the town of Quneitra, considered to be the capital of the Syrian Golan. Israeli settlements - considered illegal under international law - were then built over the destroyed Syrian villages and farms, often using the same stones from the destroyed villages and farms. Today, over 23,000 Israeli settlers live in 33 agricultural settlements and in the set- tlement town of Katzrin – considered to be the ‘settlement capital’ of the Occupied Syrian Golan. Al-G'ager Masa'ada The remaining Syrian population in the Occupied Syrian Golan is approximately 25,000 who live in five villages: Majdal Shams, Buqatha, Masa’ada, E’in Qenyah and Al G’ager. Whilst the population of those forced to leave the Syrian Golan and their descendents is more than 500,000, who mainly live in the surrounding areas of Damascus and the southern Syrian city of Dara’a.
