Those foreign fighters in Syria don't get the attention of Western reporters

"A total of 12 fighters from Chechnya were killed Friday in Syria's central Hama province, activists said. The fighters were killed when two rockets landed in the al- Hamra village in the eastern countryside of Hama, the Britain- based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said."

"The government in Dushanbe says three Tajiks fighting on the side of Islamist rebels in Syria were recently killed." "Officials in neighboring Kyrgyzstan meanwhile said the following day that two Kyrgyz men who were fighting with Islamist rebels were brought back from Syria by Kyrgyz security officers this week."
