A Kurdish commander says a British citizen fighting alongside his forces against the Islamic State group has been killed in Syria.
Redo Khalil, a commander in the YPG militia, said Wednesday the British man, Konstandinos Erik Scurfield, was shot dead March 2 in the front-line village of Tel Khuzela. Another foreign fighter battling with the Kurds, American Jordan Matson, says he is with the body and working on getting the remains back to Britain.
