Syrian Border Security Force
The Syrian Border Security Force (BSF) is a reported U.S.-trained border security force which is to deploy along Syria's borders with Turkey, Iraq and the Euphrates, with the strategic aim of containing remnants of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). The US state department recently denied the implementation of any border security force by the US government referring to the new development simply as security training.
