New Report Further Exposes Turkey Links to ISIL Militants
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - A newly-released report has shed further light on the Turkish government’s links to the ISIL militants, showing that Ankara is helping the Takfiri terrorist recruits cross the border into Syria.
A reporter working for Britain’s Sky News has obtained documents showing that the Turkish government has stamped passports of foreign militants seeking to cross the Turkey border into Syria to join the ISIL terrorists.
Passports from different countries were recovered in a village near Syria’s strategic town of Kobani across the Turkish border, Press TV reported.
Turkey has time and time again been accused of backing ISIL terrorists in Syria.
Meanwhile, a large number of foreign passports recovered from terrorists killed during Syrian army operations show that many of the ISIL militants in Syria had traveled from Libya, Chechnya, Turkey, Morocco, Egypt, Belgium and France.
The Ankara government continues to block the supply of military equipment and reinforcements for Kurdish fighters defending Kobani against the terrorists.
Ankara also prevents Turkish Kurds from crossing the border into Kobani to join the anti-ISIL battle for the city.
Kobani and its surroundings have been under attack since mid-September, with ISIL militants capturing dozens of nearby Kurdish villages.
