Druze protest along buffer zone after attack in Golan Heights Jihadists launched an assault Friday on a government-held village in Syria's Golan Heights, killing at least nine people in a car bomb, and clashing with regime troops, state media said, prompting Druze residents in Majdal Shams to gather along the buffer zone seeking to cross over and help. Nearly 140,000 members of the Druze minority, which follows a secretive offshoot of Shiite Islam, live in Israel and the Israeli-occupied Golan. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
