Syrians are protesting against Israel's occupation of parts of southern Syria. The area lies near the Golan Heights, which Israel itself occupies. Al Jazeera reported on the protests in a video report published on 24 October.
What is happening
The demonstrators object to the presence of Israeli forces and to incursions into Syrian territory in the south of the country. Syria is a Middle Eastern state whose southern part borders the occupied Golan Heights.
What the report does not say
The available report does not say how many people took part, where exactly the demonstrations were held, or what the protesters specifically demanded. It also gives no response from Israeli or Syrian officials. Such details may emerge in later reporting on the situation in the south of the country.
