More Syrian Militants Return From Libya In Coffins

Illustrative image.

At least seven Syrian militants were killed in the last few days while fighting for the Government of National Accord (GNA) in Libya, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on May 9.

According to the monitoring group, the dead bodies of the militants were sent to the Turkish-occupied part of northern Aleppo. The militants were killed in clashes with the Libyan National Army (LNA) around the capital, Tripoli, and the city of Misrata.

“The death toll of pro-Turkish factions as a result of military operations in Libya has reached 268,” the UK-based group said in a report.

The slain militants were fighting for the al-Mu’tasim Brigade, the al-Sultan Murad Brigade, the Northern Hawks Brigade, the al-Hamza Division and the Suleyman Shah Brigade.

In spite of these heavy losses, Turkey is deploying more Syrian militants in Libya. 8,000 Syrians are currently fighting for the GNA there. At least 3,100 others are preparing for deployment in Libya.

“Most of the factions no longer have a desire to send fighters to fight in Libya, especially in light of the extremely difficult conditions of the fighters there and Turkey’s failure to fulfill the temptations it promised to provide in the beginning,” the SOHR’s report reads.

Earlier this week, hundreds defected from the Turkish-backed Sultan Murad Division as result of disagreements related to the group’s involvement in the Libyan war.

Syrian militants have failed to make any serious achievement in Libya, so far. Currently, most Syrians are being used by GNA forces as “cannon fodder” on Tripoli’s hottest frontlines.

Nordic Monitor

Turkey is conducting massive intelligence gathering operations and spying on critics of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s Islamist government in more than a dozen countries around the world.

The documents refer to a Turkish secret government agency set up in 2016 by special order of President Erdogan, which operates under the auspices of the General Directorate of Security (Emniyet).

A review of the documents shows that Turkish spies are actively gathering information in the following countries: United States, Canada, Germany, United Kingdom, Belgium, Italy, Netherlands, Greece, Norway, Romania, Brazil, Angola, Angola, South Africa Uzbekistan, Pakistan and Kyrgyzstan.

Their ‘footsteps’ show that information is being gathered about people who have been critical of Erdogan in these countries (but this is clearly the case with newspapers, the internet, television, etc.) and who are being sent to the Ministry of National Security against Crime (Ulusal Güvenliğe) Yönelik Suçlarla Mücadele Şube Müdürlüğü), a special department founded on 12 May 2016 in Ankara.

Erdogan personally called for the establishment of this department, which was approved at a cabinet meeting chaired by then-Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu by decision no. 2016/8591, approved on 14 March 2016.

The information gathered with a clear violation of the relevant Vienna Conventions on the conduct of diplomats on foreign soil was also included in the case file.

This means that any expert or not, website, newspaper, tv show, which criticizes Erdogan and Turkey, is recorded in the relevant list. In short, the Turks are following the logic of their bloodthirsty ancestors, the Ottomans, wanting to dominate the Eastern Mediterranean and the Balkans.

Instead, they will soon see the establishment of the Kurdish state and the partition of their own state.

Many Turkish intelectuals run away to Serbia, Bosnia as for Balkans, and his regime addressed them as terrorists, calling for extradition, but courts denied.

I am surprised they even bothered to take them back too Syria instead of leaving them to be covered by a sandstorm or dropping them in the sea .

Icarus Tanović

Just like they did with never existing, CIA fictional guy named Bin Laden.

Assad must stay

syria should reject them

John Wallace

They would come back in the same way they left ,through a back door not under control of the Syrian government.

Assad must stay

isnt that how they are returning now?

Zionism = EVIL

As I posted a week ago, the Turkeys and their terrorists are failing miserably in Libya as Egypt and UAE have increased air support for the LNA. These dumb morons are forcibly press-ganged to go Libya, yesterday UN Human Rights body even stated that the perverted Turkeys are using children from refugee camps to send to Libya.The Turkey goat fuckers now have to decide if they want their own inept cannon fodder to die in Libya. Yesterday, eight Turkey officers when killed in an attack on their airbase.

Report: Forcibly recruited Child soldiers deployed to Libya by Turkish military

An exclusive UN report, citing sources on the ground in Syria and Libya, says Syrian teenagers are being sent to Libya to take part in the civil war there.

The United Nations Optional Protocol on the Convention of the Rights of the Child on the involvement of children in armed conflict, which was opened for signature in May 2000, says, “Armed groups that are distinct from the armed forces of a State should not, under any circumstances, recruit or use in hostilities persons under the age of 18 years.” It additionally says, “Parties shall take all feasible measures to prevent such recruitment and use,including the adoption of legal measures necessary to prohibit and criminalize such practices.”

Syria, Turkey and Libya are all party to the UN Protocol.

Assad must stay

do you think the UN arms embargo on iran will still be lifted in october? i hope so, and hope US does not do anything to mess with it, or if they do their messing fails completely lol

Zionism = EVIL

Yes, I have more faith in China as they are now the #1 Zionist and Americunt target, however we will see a concentrated Jew scum effort to continue with the arms embargo, which in real terms does not amount to much as with the exception of military aircraft, Iran is quite capable of producing everything. The embargo for the past 41 years only strengthened Iran’s domestic economy and production capabilities. In real terms, Iran is capable to launching space rockets and producing, missiles, tanks, ships and even 3rd generation aircraft, but collaboration with China in 4th and 5th generation aircraft would be of great benefit. Not sure how Russia will act as Putin is very much in Zionist pockets and the S-300 took ten year to deliver.

Assad must stay

True, hopefully both russia and china are aware they may try to turn them against each other in order to keep the embargo on iran, they cannot let the Zionists do that

cechas vodobenikov

to their credit these mercenaries will engage in battle—amerikan military mercenaries—animals that serve their ruling class, huddle in their fortresses, like Israelis and murder civilians w drones, planes etc—and these primitives actually believe they can defeat civilized peoples in war… apply armed Hizbollah humiliated Israel in 2006—the USA loses all wars
