Israel is reportedly offering residents of southern Syria near the border the opportunity to work in Israel with attractive wages. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have proposed this to people living in towns and villages in the buffer zone that the military took over after the fall of the Assad regime. Syrians would be allowed to enter Israeli territory for work on the Golan Heights and then return to Syria at the end of the day. The IDF informed Syrians that they could earn $75-$100 a day, a significant wage in Syria where economic hardships are prevalent.
