United States military officials have said it is increasingly believed in the Pentagon that the Syrian regime is assisting insurgents on the Syrian-Iraqi border. The Pentagon has not gone public with this assumption for lack of conclusive evidence.
However, leaks suggest they believe there are mounting signs that Syria is offering logistical support to armed men on the border, facilitating their passage into Iraq, supplying them with arms and allowing them to return for fresh supplies.
It is unclear whether Syrian President Bashar Al-Asad is directly involved in ordering this aid.
The U.S. Army has been involved in bloody clashes with terrorists on the Syrian border in northwestern Iraq since last week. The fighting started to die down on Tuesday.
More than 100 insurgents have been killed since the fighting began. Three marines were killed and fewer than 20 wounded in the fighting, U.S. military officials said.
