"When the regime fell on December 8, the Israeli tanks entered, and as you can see, they occupied the governorate building. They entered Khan Arnabeh town several times and entered the governmental institutions inside Al-Baath city. They did not enter the residential neighborhoods, but they crossed many lines and reached the center of the town."

7. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Rinata Fastas, Syrian resident:
"We want to understand why these violations are happening. Will they (Israelis) go back? And why does no one in the new Syrian state speak out about the violations happening in the province of Quneitra against the rights of its people, even if it’s just 20 or 30 families? These are Syrian families, and we at least need to know how they were expelled from their homes, where they went, where they are now, and how the occupiers treated them. There should be an official statement so the residents of Quneitra understand the situation."
