Spain, Morocco arrest 9 suspected militants linked to ISIL
2014-09-27
[ABNA.IR] The Spanish ministry said on Friday that the detained men belonged to a group based in the country's Northern African enclave of Melilla and in the neighboring Moroccan city of Nador.

The leader of the group, a Spaniard, was among those incarcerated

while the remaining eight were Moroccan nationals.

The ministry added that those detained allegedly recruited holy warriors to fight for the ISIL and their leader had coordinated training with groups linked to al-Qaeda in northern Mali along with his brother, a former Spanish soldier and a specialist in arms and explosives.

The joint Spanish-Moroccan operation was the second police raid in a month. On August 14, the two countries' police dismantled a network for recruiting and sending holy warriors to fight alongside ISIL in Spain's other Northern African enclave of Ceuta.

The ISIL Death Eaters control large areas of Syria's east and north. The ISIL sent its Takfiri holy warriors into Iraq in June, seizing large parts of land straddling the border between Syria and Iraq.

According to a CIA source, more than 15,000 imported muscle from more than 80 countries have gone to Syria to join hard boy groups. Two thousand of the fighters are believed to be westerners.
