It's about weapons., which the Americans supplied to Syria to their "allies". Among them are Kurdish militias., as well as the forces of the so-called "moderate opposition".

Weapons worth of 715 million dollars, as it turns out, was either stolen, or thrown during the battle, eventually getting to the enemy. There are episodes, which the Americans have previously reported. for example, this is the training of representatives of the Syrian "opposition" to fight ISIS terrorists (It banned in Russia). After significant investments in training and equipping these units, their representatives, together with American weapons, often went to the camp of the same ISIS group in the area of ​​​​the Syrian city of Raqqa.
