Israel’s use of so-called “shepherding outposts” to seize Palestinian land through settler herders is now being exported to Syria, as an Israeli settler, supported by the state, occupies Syrian pastureland in Wadi Toemm with a herd of 140 cattle.

In the Syrian governorate of Quneitra, Israel is seizing land, attacking and abducting residents, mauling them with army dogs, and spraying chemical agents over farmland. The Syrian government remains silent.
