Trump Heights, a settlement in the Israeli-annexed Golan, is set to double its population within the next year and expects 99 families to move into new homes within three years. The Israeli government has approved a plan to spend $11 million to double the Jewish population in the Golan, following the overthrow of President Bashar al-Assad in neighboring Syria and Israeli troops moving into a UN-patrolled buffer zone. The plan includes improving infrastructure, expanding existing settlements, and creating three new communities. Despite the volatile security situation, residents remain committed to the community and its future.
