The Golan Heights is the area that appears to be disputed by Israel and Syria. Israel captured most of the Golan Heights from Syria during the Six-Day War in 1967 and later effectively annexed it in 1981, a move that is not internationally recognized. Both countries have not been able to reach a peace agreement on the status of the region.

NO. Syria and Israel had been negotiating prior to the Arab Spring of 2011 to have a peace treaty. The particular thorn in the negotiations was not really the Golan Heights, as Israel was willing to concede that, but the 5 square kilometer area that was part of the British Mandate of Palestine in 1947 and was Syrian-Occupied in 1949. This small piece of land gave Syria direct access to the Sea of Galilee, something Israel wants to prevent Syria from accessing.
