US expected to back Syrian Golan resolution at U.N.
At the United Nations the United States is seen backing a Syrian draft declaring Israel's Golan annexation null and void and urging reversal. The draft could trigger sanctions if noncompliance is not achieved, though the U.S. is likely to veto sanctions. Arabs on the Golan begin a second day of general strike, closing shops and schools, while Israeli jets reconnoiter near the buffer zone as Israel extends its law to the Golan after declaring annexation.
