The Syrian Human Rights Monitoring Center (SHRM) said dozens of pro-Turkish mediators are working in Idlib and Aleppo provinces to recruit mercenaries to participate in the conflict on the side of the Libyan so-called National Consent Government.
Syrian human rights activists say recruiters do not hesitate to even recruit minors.
“The mediator takes $ 100 from each mercenary, and also receives a commission of unknown size from the“ mercenary collection bureau” of the Turkish groups in the north of Aleppo,” SHRM sources said.
The recruitment of children under the age of 18 is carried out if the child is trained in military affairs and has previously taken part in hostilities. SHRM notes that of the 318 deaths reported by fighters of pro-Turkish groups in
Libya, 18 people have not reached 18 years of age.
