Hague: £5 Million Additional Support to Syrian Rebels
Local Editor
British Foreign Secretary William Hague has stated Britain would step up its support for Syria's armed insurgents, providing them with an additional £5 million, reported the Telegraph newspaper.
Hague again claimed that Britain's support for the armed insurgents in Syria would take the form of "non-lethal support" saying it would remain British policy not to send arms. He stated that the aid would include communications equipment, body armor, radio and satellite equipment, portable power generators and field medical equipment.
"We will provide urgent training and equipment to Syrian human rights activists, including cameras, video recorders and forensic equipment," he added.
Meanwhile several media reports published by a scope of media outlets such as the British Daily Mail and the "Israeli" military intelligence website DEBKAfile have told of the scale of Britain's interference in Syria from the role of its former Special Air Service (SAS) soldiers in training the leaders of armed terror groups in Syria to the centers of operation established by British forces in the Syrian city of Homs.
Earlier this week, reports had revealed that Britain was secretly equipping armed insurgents in Syria with new satellite phones.
