Druze residents from the village of Masa’deh in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights have taken to the streets in support of their counterparts in Sweida, Syria. The march highlights a growing sense of cross-border solidarity among the Druze community amid ongoing unrest and calls for greater rights and reforms in Syria.
Demonstrators waved Druze flags and chanted slogans of support, emphasizing their deep-rooted cultural and spiritual ties with the Druze population in Sweida, a predominantly Druze province in southern Syria.

Masa’deh, one of the four remaining Druze villages in the Golan Heights, has long maintained strong emotional and familial connections to Druze communities across the border. Many residents view the struggles of Sweida’s Druze as part of a shared identity and historical narrative.
