Iranian-backed militias entered Syria overnight from Iraq and were heading to northern Syria to beef up beleaguered Syrian army forces battling armed opposition groups.
Axar.az reports that citing Reuters, dozens of Iran-aligned Iraqi Hashed al-Shaabi fighters from Iraq also crossed into Syria through a military route near Al Bukamal crossing.
“These are fresh reinforcements being sent to aid our comrades on the front lines in the north,” a senior Syrian army source said adding that the militias included Iraq’s Kata’ib Hezbollah and Fatemiyoun groups.
