Useless to say it's an Israeli village. For one thing, it's not even 100% clear that the Golan heights were formally fully annexed by Israel in the first place (as opposed to Israeli law being extended to cover the Golan heights), and secondly, the inhabitants of Majdal Shams are uncontroversially NOT Israelis...

These paper eclipse glasses are essential for safe viewing of this solar event. Prepare For 2017. On August 21, 2017, millions of Americans will be able to witness the moon passing between the Earth and Sun in a total eclipse. This event will entirely block all of the sun, briefly turning day into night.
Please make sure to protect your eyes if you watch the partial solar eclipse. Share your photos with CNN iReport. (CNN) -- Maybe your mother told you it's not polite to stare. It wasn't safe either, NASA said, for those who looked at Thursday's partial solar eclipse. Don't stare, NASA said. Even at maximum eclipse, a sliver of sun peeking out from behind the Moon can still cause pain and eye damage.
