The Golan Subdistrict is an area administered by Israel as a subdistrict of Northern District. The subdistrict encompasses the Israeli-occupied territories of the Golan Heights, occupied from Syria during the 1967 Six-Day War and annexed to Israel under the Golan Heights Law. Thus, this region is internationally seen as Syrian territory, encompassing parts of the Syrian Quneitra Governorate.
