Quneitra Crossing
The Quneitra Crossing is a ceasefire line crossing between Syrian controlled territory and the Israeli-occupied portion of the Golan Heights. Syrian Druze from the Golan Heights are permitted to cross through the passage to study, work and live in Syria. The crossing is also used for the export of apples grown by Israeli Druze farmers under the auspices of the Red Cross. The only concrete guard post along the border is at the Quneitra crossing.
