Former Islamic State ( IS, banned in Russia ) fighters, granted US-backed amnesty, are leaving Syria on fake passports for the United States, Canada and Europe. This was announced by Rear Admiral Oleg Zhuravlev, Deputy Head of the Russian Center for the Reconciliation of Warring Parties (CPVS) in Syria, TASS reports.
According to him, earlier the militants were in places of detention controlled by the Kurdish administration on the territory of Zaevfrat.
“Using fake passports with visa marks affixed to them, these individuals travel to the United States of America, Canada and EU countries,” he said.
Earlier, Zhuravlev said that hundreds of terrorists in Syria were released and accepted into US-controlled armed groups. According to him, the freed followers of radical movements were accepted into the ranks of US-controlled armed groups, some of which were transferred to the territory of the al-Tanf zone.
