Elections for local councils in Golan Heights Druze communities are being held for the first time since 1967, according to journalist Guy Varon.
What began a year ago as a hope for local democracy and the actual implementation of Israeli law, has become, thanks to President Bashar Al-Assad's victory in Syria, a boycott and struggle. Since the morning, a few dozen have voted in the shadow of a threat to a religious and social boycott. In demonstrations against the elections, the police used tear gas.
