US now calls Golan Heights ‘Israeli-controlled’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe US referred to the Golan Heights as “Israeli-controlled” for the first time in a new State Department report released today on human rights.
Last year, for the first time, the report dropped references to the Golan, West Bank and the Gaza Strip as being “occupied” by Israel.
This year’s report simply calls the West Bank “the West Bank” and the Gaza Strip as “the Gaza Strip.”
