CIA agents and U.S. special operations troops have provided training for gunmen from the “Syrian opposition” anti-tank and antiaircraft weaponry in Turkey and Jordan... 'for months', ...the Los Angeles Times newspaper revealed.“CIA operatives and U.S. special operations troops have been secretly training Syrian rebels with anti-tank and antiaircraft weapons... since late last year,... months before President Obama approved plans to begin directly arming them,”..... the newspaper quoted U.S. officials and armed terrorist groups’ commanders as saying in article published Friday.
This adds to many previous media reports which clearly exposed Washington’s direct involvement in arming and training the terrorist groups in Syria.
The two-week courses include training with Russian-designed 14.5-millimeter antitank rifles, anti-tank missiles and 23-millimeter antiaircraft weapons, according to the article. A U.S. official,.... who discussed the effort anonymously because he was not authorized to disclose details, told the Los Angeles Times that the training has involved fighters from the Free Syrian Army
