These fighters have a European passports. They are open to enter the US. without visa.

They are not receiving their salaries for four months now. Most of them have no working permits. They’re suffering due to lack of money. I hope our request for help will reach the concerned agency.” (end of message). We will wait for the complainant’s call tomorrow so we can get more details and it would be easier for our program to make proper action. Thank you Ms. Dolem for your message.
