An Italian was killed in action fighting alongside terrorists in Syria.

Giuliano Ibrahim Delnevo, a 23- or 24-year-old from Genoa in northern Italy, was killed in Syria while fighting with the armed terrorist groups in Syria.

His body was identified from his Italian passport.

According to the Corriere della Sera newspaper, Delnevo crossed into Syria in 2012 from Turkey and joined rebels seeking to topple Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

Moreover, new evidence emerged of escalating foreign support for the rebels, with a Gulf source telling Reuters that Saudi Arabia had equipped insurgents for the first time with shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles, their most urgent request. Rebels said Riyadh had also sent them anti-tank missiles.

The shoulder-fired weapons were obtained mostly from suppliers in France and Belgium, the source told Reuters. France had paid for the transport of the weapons to the region.
