11-yr-old Syrian refugee becomes Germany's youngest chess player

An 11-year-old Syrian refugee has become the youngest chess player to compete for Germany. The boy, Hussain Besou, is set to play for the German national chess team at the Mitropa Cup in Croatia later this month. "[Besou] is very quick to grasp the chess positions. This really is extraordinary," German national youth trainer Bernd Voelker said.
