Special forces have been there since at least December. The French are there in larger numbers at this stage though. The Syrian military have caught several of them (1,500 foreigners, many French identified) Meanwhile, the French government is officially denying all connection but negotiations are going on between three groups for their release. If the Fench do not claim them as their own they will be shot as terrorist by the Syrian government. If the French do claim them they have committed a war crime. I have posted this in the 'Mediteranean Battlefield' thread in Geopolitical Hotspots.
