What is history of Golan Heights where Israel plans to double its presence?

Israel plans to double its presence in the Golan Heights, a strategically important region it captured from Syria during the 1967 Six-Day War and annexed in 1981. The area, spanning 1,200 square kilometres, offers high elevation, crucial for monitoring enemy movements. Although Israel's annexation is not internationally recognised, US officially backed Israeli sovereignty over the region in 2019.
