Shocking Number of Foreign” Militants” in Syria

Over 6,000 foreign “militants” have been killed in Syria, including 630 fighters from the terrorist “Mojahedin-e Khalq” Organization (MKO, also known as the MEK, NCRI and PMOI), a new report disclosed.

According to the Lebanese Al Manar TV, citing reliable reports from European research centers, more than 40,000 of foreign “militants” are fighting in Syria.

As the report shows, it can be said for sure that at least 6113 “militants” have been killed so far, while the actual amount is said to be much more.

Among those killed, 640 “militants” have been identified to be linked to the MKO.

The MKO is listed as a terrorist organization by much of the international community and has committed numerous terrorist acts against Iranians and Iraqis.

In early April, the MKO opened an office near the White House in Washington for the first time in 11 years.

The MKO’s office, located a block from the White House, officially opened on April 11 only months after the United States formally removed the anti-Iranian group from the US list of terrorist organizations in September 2012.

Results of the available data shows, 729 “militants” from Saudi Arabia, 640 from MKO, 489 from Egypt, 439 from Lebanon, 439 from Caucasus, 301 from Afghanistan, 263 from Libya, 261 from Pakistan, 208 from Iraq, 188 from Russia, 167 from Turkey, 129 from Jordan, 117 from Somalia, 109 from Kuwait, 90 from France, 67 from Germany, 66 from Britain, 50 from Tunisia, 55 from Indonesia, 53 from Algeria, 52 from Yemen, 19 from Qatar, 45 from Belgium, 40 from Uzbekistan, 35 from United States, 31 from Kosovo, 21 from Azerbaijan, 31 from Malta, 7 from Mauritania, 6 from Sierra Leone and 6 from Suriname have been killed in the violence.

Infiltration of foreign militants to Syria, by the help of their western and regional supporters is turning to be a grave concern for regional countries.
