The Golan Heights is a large portion of the Syrian province of Quneitira which forms the southernmost edge of the Anti-Lebanon Mountains. However, as a result of the Six Day War of 1967, the Golan Heights fell under legal Israeli occupation (pursuant to UNSC Resolution 242) until such time as Israel and Syria could come to a peace agreement. In 1981, Israel illegally annexed the Golan Heights to its Northern Province. It remains under Israeli control.

However, aside from the Golan Heights, which is less than 1% of all of Syria, Israel does not occupy any Syrian land.
