Ex-World Champion Kickboxer Killed Fighting along ISIL in Syria

A former kickboxing world champion who had joined the ISIL Takfiri terrorist group in Syria was killed, media reports said.
The 29-year-old Valdet Gashi was killed while fighting among the ISIL ranks in Syria, the Kurdish news website ARA reported.

The former world champion had left his home and family in Germany in January to join ISIL in Syria.

According to UN reports, over 22,000 foreign fighters are currently fighting alongside the Takfiri terrorists in Syria and Iraq, where extremists of ISIL have taken over large areas.

The ISIL Takfiri terrorists currently control shrinking swathes of Syria and Iraq. They have threatened all communities, including Shiites, Sunnis, Kurds, Christians, Ezadi Kurds and others, as they continue their atrocities in Iraq.

Senior Iraqi officials have blamed Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and some Persian Gulf Arab states for the growing terrorism in their country.

The ISIL has links with Saudi intelligence and is believed to be indirectly supported by the Israeli regime.
