HTS Appoints Foreign Extremists To Top Positions In New Syrian Army
More than 40,000 foreign fighters from over 100 countries traveled to Syria during the war to fight for UN-designated terror groups, including the Nusra Front and ISIS
The interim Syrian government has promoted seven foreign fighters from extremist groups formerly linked to Al-Qaeda to the ranks of lieutenant and colonel as part of a series of promotions announced on 30 December.
The Syrian Defense Ministry announced the promotions in a letter signed by Ahmad al-Sharaa (previously known as Abu Mohammad al-Julani), who became Syria’s new de facto leader and commander-in-chief of the Syrian armed forces after the fall of Bashar al-Assad’s government earlier this month.
Sharaa formerly led the Al-Qaeda affiliated Nusra Front, which he founded in Syria under the direction of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in 2011. The Nusra Front later changed its name to Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).
According to the US State Department, more than 40,000 foreign fighters from over 100 countries traveled to Syria to fight for UN-designated terror groups, including the Nusra Front and ISIS.
Now, many are receiving high positions in the new Syrian army.
