US Marines Conduct Major Drills With Rebels in Southern Syria
• https://news.antiwar.com, by Jason DitzAccording to one of the rebel commanders operating along the Syria-Jordan border, hundreds of US Marines and a large number of rebels have completed several days of live fire military exercises along the border.
These appear to be the continuation of live-fire exercises the Marines were carrying out last week at al-Tanf, which officials said were intended as a "warning to Russia," after Russia warned they planned to act against Islamist factions in the area.
