This article describes the story of six Druze women from various ages, who were born in Syria and had married Druze men from the Golan Height, under the Israeli rule. These marriages had created a separation between the women and their family in Syria, and in some cases the separation was total and the women ceased seeing or meeting their families at all. Israel and Syria do not have diplomatic relations; in fact, they are considered enemies. This article displays the problems the Druze women to face, as well as to cope with the new society on the Israeli side.
