Elite Iranian troops killed in Syria ambush
2016-05-08
[AA.TR] A group of Iran’s elite revolutionary guards was killed in an ambush by opposition fighters in northern Syria, Iranian news website Asriran said Saturday.

At least 20 Iranians were killed near Aleppo on Friday, the website reported. Around 100 were attacked and several captured and injured.

The Iranian authorities have not yet made a statement about the incident.

Iranian troops and Iran-backed Lebanese Hezbollah fighters have been supporting Bashir al-Assad’s regime against opposition forces in Syria.

#3  "Elite" military forces in the ME are patterned after Hitler's SS. Their main purpose is to intimidate and oppress the locals.

However, the Muzzies don't understand the difference between true soldiers, albeit nasty ones, and normal street thugs.
