Thousands of Israel's Druze minority attended a demonstration Saturday morning in the northern Druze village of Beit Jann, in support of their brethren in Syria who are under siege by Jabhat al-Nusra, the al-Qaeda-linked rebel group.

The organizers of the demonstration claimed they will continue their protest until a solution is found for the Druze living in southern Syria's mountainous region, nicknamed Jabal al-Druze for its Druze majority. Earlier this week, the Syrian rebels surrounded it and have since murdered at least 20 of them.

"Israel is going to be flooded with demonstrations like this," one of the organizers exclaimed. A citizen of Beit Jann told Channel 2 News: "We are here because we want to tell our brothers in Syria – we will not let anybody harm you."

So far, the Druze protest has received quiet support from the Israeli public. Druze villages in the Galilee have lately been visited by some Israeli Jews, as well as people of other religions and ethnic groups, who wished to donate money in order to assist the besieged Druze in Syria.

During last week, dozens of Druze citizens from the Golan Heights gathered along the border with Syria and watched over to the other side using binoculars. They told media sources they were worried for their families' safety.

The IDF has pledged to give humanitarian aid to any refugee who approaches the border with Israel. In a Facebook post on Tuesday, IDF Spokesperson Moti Almoz said the situation in the northern Golan was "uneventful" and "under control", but later that day the army declared an area in the northeastern Golan a closed military zone, limiting access to residents only.
