Syrian Druze Seek Israeli Annexation Amidst Regional Turmoil
Druze leaders from the Syrian village of Hader in the Golan Heights have called for annexation to Israel, citing threats from Islamist militias. This move reflects fears of retaliation from anti-Assad forces and a desire for protection, as Israel has historically shielded the Druze community. The call for annexation is seen as a response to Syria's instability and the Druze's need for security and autonomy.
