RNA - The Jabhat Fatah Al-Sham keep receiving enforcements through the border with Turkey, Ilya Rogachev, the head of the Department for New Challenges and Threats (DNCT) at the Russian Foreign Ministry said, Ria Novosti reported.

"We see that the opposition in general and Jabhat Fatah Al-Sham in particular keep receiving enforcements through the Syrian-Turkish border… This and other issues create uncertainty in the relations with the Americans," Rogachev told RIA Novosti.

Syria has been mired in war since 2011, with government forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad fighting numerous Takfiri terrorist groups.
