Golan Heights will forever remain in Israel’s hands and never be returned to Syria, vowed Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday at the country’s first cabinet meeting held in the occupied territory. The Israeli prime minister called on the international community to recognize Israeli sovereignty in Golan Heights, which was seized from Syria in 1967’s Six-Day War. According to the Wall Street Journal, Israel annexed the region in 1981 though it has never been internationally recognized, and now Syria is demanding its return.
