Report: Journalist Sacked after Exposing CIA Weapons Shipments to Terrorists in Syria
TEHRAN (FNA)- A Bulgarian journalist was fired for exposing a massive covert weapons shipment network from Eastern Europe to terror groups in Syria involving US spy agency, the CIA, media reports said.
investigative reporter Dilyana Gaytandzhieva authored a bombshell report for Trud Newspaper, based in Sofia, Bulgaria, which found that an Azerbaijan state airline company was regularly transporting tons of weaponry to Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Turkey under diplomatic cover as part of the CIA covert program to supply anti-government militants in Syria, Al waght reported.
According to a report published by Zerohege website, Those weapons, Gaytandzhieva found, ended up in the hands of ISIL and al-Qaeda terrorists in Iraq and Syria.
While it's long been believed that the US-Persian Gulf-NATO coalition arming terrorists inside Syria facilitated the rapid rise of ISIL , the Trud Newspaper report is the first to provide exhaustive documentation detailing the precise logistical chain of the weapons as they flowed from their country of origin to the battlefield in Syria and Iraq. Gaytandzhieva even traveled to Aleppo where she filmed and examined labeled weapons shipping containers held in underground storehouses.
The Bulgaria-based journalist obtained and published dozens of secret internal memos which were leaked to her by an anonymous source as part of the report. The leaked documents appear to be internal communications between the Bulgarian government and Azerbaijan's Embassy in Sofia detailing flight plans for Silk Way Airlines, which was essentially operating an "off the books" weapons transport service, not subject to inspections or tax under diplomatic cover, for the US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), Saudi Arabia, Israel, Germany, Denmark, and Sweden.
Gaytandzhieva said on Thursday in a tweet that she was fired from her job at Trud after she was interrogated by the Bulgarian national security which tried to find out her sources.
US-led forces are currently conducting airstrikes inside Syria to reportedly combat ISIL terrorists. The airstrikes are carried out without the permission of Damascus thus violating the country’s sovereignty.
The conflict in Syria started in March 2011, with the government of President Bashar al Assad blaming some Western states, especially the US and their regional allies, including Saudi Arabia, of backing terrorists wreaking havoc in the country.
