A very interesting piece by @emilyzfeng.bsky.social on how Uyghurs became the biggest group of foreign fighters in Syria fighting against the Assad regime. For now, at least, they are making a new home in the country.
Thousands of Uyghurs became key fighters against Syria's Assad regime. For the first time, they agreed to be interviewed. NPR spent weeks with some of them to understand why they fled China for Syria.
