This group, "Followers of Zainab Brigade (لواء زينبیون, Liwa Zainebiyoun or
Liwa Zainabiyoon) is a pro-government brigade fighting in Syria and composed of
Shia Pakistanis". It was established in late 2014. It was formed and trained by
the Iranian Revolutionary Guards and operates under
their command. Initially tasked with defending the Sayyidah Zaynab Mosque (in
Damascus), it has since entered frontlines across Syria. Pakistanis have been
fighting in Syria since 2013, but the group started around November 2014. They
originally fought in the Afghan Liwa Fatemiyoun, and only became numerous enough
to warrant a distinct brigade in early 2015".
