Druze sources in Lebanon fear an Israeli project to expand the buffer zone to Khalda, Damour and Jazin Druze sources say that the Israeli plans for a buffer zone from southern Lebanon to southern Syria and Jordan, an area with a clear Druze majority, are not new. The lecture describes a project to expand the area to Halda and Ladmur, control Jezin and part of the Khof and deploy the Israeli National Guard there. According to the reports, the former commander of the Golani Brigade, Lt. Col. Hassan Aliyan, was tasked with managing the Druze case in Syria, Lebanon and Jordan.
