2500 Russians are fighting alongside ISIS in Syria
2015-09-18
For those tracking such things:
[IraqiNews] Russian Social Council said that nearly 2500 Russian citizens are fighting alongside ISIS in Syria.

Head of the Civic chamber commission on the public diplomacy and support of compatriots abroad Elena Sutormina said: "recent data indicate that there are about 2500 Russian citizens and 7000 citizens of other independent states are there."

Sutormina added in a radio interview that those who recruited turbans are giving special attention to the residents of the villages and mountain villages "where there are no prospects for young people."

#1  Well, maybe they're volunteers. It's not like that hasn't happened before. Three Eagle Squadrons flew for the Brits.
