Officials Claim Russia Recruiting Syrians To Fight In Ukraine: US Daily
Washington: Russia recruits Syrian combatants experienced in urban fighting because it increases its assault on Ukraine, according to US officials cited by the Wall Street Journal Sunday.
Moscow, who launched an invasion in his neighbor’s neighbor on February 24, in recent days, recruited Syria’s fighters hoping to be able to take Kiev, four US officials told the United States every day.
Russia entered the Syrian Civil War in 2015 on the side of President Bashar Al-Assad’s regime. The country has been brought into a conflict marked by urban combat for more than a decade.
A manager told the newspaper that some fighters are already in Russia preparing to join the fight in Ukraine, although it is not immediately clear, how many fighters were recruited and that the sources would not provide more details.
The Ukrainian Foreign Minister of Dmyro Kuleba claimed about 20,000 foreign volunteers went to the country to join the forces of Kiev.
The capital and the second largest city in Kharkiv are still owned by the Government of Ukraine, while Russia has seized Kherson’s port city and intensified its bombing of urban centers across the country.
The assault of Russia, at its twelfth day, saw more than 1.5 million people flee the country in what the UN has described the refugee crisis for Europe’s fastest growing growth since the second World War.
