On Sunday, the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) declared in a statement the capture of 22 Syrian people infiltrated to Iraqi territories. "A well-done" ambush was set by the forces of Brigade 53 and the intelligence for those Syrian people who were captured and moved to competent authorities," the statement said. The Iraqi authorities did not reveal the identities of those captured or their infiltration reasons. The Syrian-Iraqi border witnesses infiltrations from time to time, according to security statements. "There is a constant change in plans due to the situation on the border. The latest change was setting new checkpoints between Nineveh governorate and Syria to encounter infiltration," said Athir al-Ruba’i, commander of Squad 20 of the Iraqi Army. The Iraqi security forces have not disclosed the official number of all the Syrian arrested who passed the border illegally since the beginning of the war in Syria ten years ago. |
