The United States began to supply weapons to Kurdish fighters in Syria who are fighting against terrorists of the "Islamic state".

This was stated by Pentagon spokesman Adrian Rankine-Galloway, writes "Radio Liberty".

"We have begun to transfer small arms and vehicles for the Kurdish elements of the Syrian democratic forces," he said..

Turkey's reaction, which previously criticized the US intention to provide weapons to the Kurds, was not yet implemented.

NATO member Turkey earlier stated that the US decision to arm Kurdish fighters who are fighting against the extremist grouping of IGIL in Syria is "unacceptable", warning that such a policy is "unprofitable to anyone".

In Washington, they assure that the arming of the Kurds is necessary to regain control of Ar-Raqqa in northern Syria, which became the "capital" of the militants IGIL.

As reported by the "Observer", in Syria, militants Igil found weapons with Russian electronics.
