IBTimes: Moscow: 2,400 Russian nationals fighting for Isis in Syria, Iraq
Moscow has revealed that it has information of at least 2,400 Russian nationals fighting for the Islamic State (isis) terrorist group in Syria and Iraq.
The First Deputy Director of Federal Security, Sergei Smirnov, said on Friday that of the 3,000 Central Asian nationals, at least 2,400 are Russians.
According to the RIA news agency report, Smirnov told journalists that the migrants' issue that is creating a crisis in Europe, poses a potentially "great threat" to Russia.
WNU Editor: It does not take a genius to know that these men are going to be a big security problem when they get back to Russia .... which I expect most of them will eventually do.
