The firm that serves a jihadist clientele

It is well known that western armies have long employed private military contractors, from Afghanistan to Iraq, but now the other side has cottoned on. Rebels in Syria have also been using a consultancy firm to carry out first aid and combat training, as well as some of the actual fighting.

For over a year a firm called ‘Malhama Tactical’ has been working with an exclusively jihadist clientele.
