French and Algerian fighters, some arriving from Syria, have joined the ranks of the Islamic State group in northern Afghanistan where the militants have established new bases, multiple international and Afghan sources have told AFP.
It is the first time that the presence of French IS fighters has been recorded in Afghanistan, and comes as analysts suggested foreigners may be heading for the war-torn country after being driven from Syria and Iraq.
It is also a troubling sign as France, which has faced the worst of the IS-inspired violence in Europe since 2015, debates how to handle hundreds of its citizens who went to fight for the group in the Middle East.

French fighters the oxymoron of the day.
France’s Socialist/Islamist self-destruction once could be considered an internal matter. They would suffer because of their own stupidity.
Now, the rest of the world will suffer because of their stupidity.
French fighters the oxymoron of the day.
Normal people with common sense know if you put mustard in a ketchup bottle it's still mustard. These "French" fighters are muslims, not French.
They are there to teach ISIS how to surrender...
Don’t bet on the “Pierre” or “Maurice” French.
Put all your money on the “Mohamed” or “Ahmed” “French.”
iSIS kills their own
What movie was that?
Top Secret!
Thanks
If they still had a survival instinct they would execute any who return.
They don’t so jihad will increase.
They should follow the very successful US diplomatic policy in that regard. Talk to a guy named Mattis.
Big surprise there. Frenchies are historically big antisemites. Joke’s on them, having given their country away to Muzzlimes. New Paris couture will be spangled hijabs and velvet burkhas.
That’s completely ignorant. The French Army has fought damned hard every time it has been used. It’s WWI performance was very strong. Stopped the Germans and basically held them to a 60 mile band the rest of the war.
WWII they fought very hard but the British fled the northern flank and the Germans simply had new tactics that worked well. In the 6 week battle for France they killed 27,074 Germans, wounded 111,034, and left the Germans with 18,384 missing. The French had 85,310 killed (including 5,400 Maghrebis), 12,000 missing, 120,000 wounded.
This crap about the French soldier being a coward is a not supported by any reality. For some reason the Brits never get the same treatment. They fled the battlefield at Dunkirk and them bravely running away is somehow a great military victory. Or maybe Singapore where they surrendered to a Japanese force one third it’s size, turning on it’s head the military standard of 3 to 1 being needed to assault a fortified position.
Tea drinking surrender monkeys.
DIdn’t we let convoys of them just walk/drive away without bombing them into eternity? FUBAR!
There are no french fighters. There are more Algerians and perhas Morroccans who passed through France on their way to Jihad.
New tactics (aka Polish breath mints)?
The Germans went around the Maginot line through the Benelux countries!
Bingo.
