ArmInfo. The American newspaper The Wall Street Journal reported that hundreds of militants associated with Turkey from Syria were transferred to the conflict area in Nagorno-Karabakh.
The publication published the relevant material the day before, reports TASS. As the article says, "hundreds of members of Syrian armed groups in alliance with Turkey took part in the battles between Azerbaijan and Armenia." According to the newspaper, "hundreds more are preparing for shipment." The article notes that this information was confirmed by two sources of the newspaper in Syria, connected with the transfer of militants.
According to the sources of the publication, since July "information has begun to spread among the Syrian rebel groups that Turkey is recruiting fighters to participate in hostilities." According to the newspaper, in mid-September, militants were sent from Syria to the conflict zone "in groups of up to 100 people at a time." A source in Syria associated with the armed groups noted that hundreds of people were deployed, but "dozens have already returned, alarmed by the fierce fighting."
The material cites the words of a Syrian rebel, according to which the militants who arrived in Nagorno- Karabakh from the SAR receive payments of up to $ 2,000 a month. According to another source, "the losses among the Syrian fighters are growing rapidly." As he noted, "about 200 Syrians have already asked to return them back." The publication says that Turkey has organized military exercises in Azerbaijan for two weeks and "provided the Azerbaijani authorities with attack drones." The publication notes that Turkey, according to the US Department of Defense, previously organized the dispatch of approximately 5 thousand militants from Syria to Libya. "Sending to Libya or Azerbaijan has become a normal phenomenon," the source said in Syria. "People no longer care what or against whom to fight, now they only ask about money. They will go where the money is," he added.
