The Islamic State group has an army of more than 50,000 fighters in Syria, and recruited 6,000 people in the last month, a monitoring group has said.
Rami Abdel Rahman, the director of the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said on Tuesday that the group’s recruitment push was gathering pace every month.
“July saw the largest recruitment since the group appeared in Syria in 2013, with more than 6,000 new fighters,” he said.
“The number of IS fighters has passed 50,000 in Syria, including 20,000 non-Syrians,” he said.
