American generals are forced to admit that in Syria, despite all the efforts of the coalition led by the United States, terrorists succeed in successfully recruiting their supporters.
This, in particular, said the most senior US military - the chairman of the committee of chiefs of staff of the US armed forces, General Joseph Dunford.
According to him, the main route for the penetration of jihadists into Syrian territory is through the Turkish-Syrian border.
According to the US military intelligence, about 100 new militants arrive in the combat zone every month. Three years ago, these figures were at the level of 1,500 Islamists per month.
The national composition of the militants is diverse. So, according to the general, the militarized formations of the Syrian Democratic forces supported by the United States are holding at least 700 militants from more than 40 countries of the world in their captivity.
