Russia's ‘Secret Mercenaries' Fighting Rebels, U.S. Troops in Syria
[Breitbart] Russia is secretly using mercenaries to combat rebels and U.S. forces on the ground in Syria on behalf of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad, Sky News reveals, citing young Russians who claim they were hired to fight in the Middle Eastern country by a private military company ran by a Nazi aficionado.The United States is backing some Syrian rebels who have been previously targeted by Russia. Two young Russians, identified by the noms de guerre of Alexander and Dmitry, related their mercenary experience in Syria to Sky News. "It’s 50-50," declared Alexander, noting that he was lucky to be alive. "Most people who go there for the money end up dead. Those who fight for ideals, to fight against the Americans, American special-forces, some ideology -- they have a better chance of survival." I don't suppose any of these lads were present for duty in Benghazi ? Posted by: Besoeker 2016-08-12 |
