ISIL, Kurds continue fierce fighting in Syria's Kobani
[Iran Press TV] Fierce festivities have resumed between ISIL Takfiri...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed... holy warriors and Kurdish fighters in Syria's northern town of Kobani, which has been under siege by ISIL for over a month. Reports coming out of the town on Saturday said ISIL had made a new attempt to capture Kobani. The holy warriors attacked the Kurdish forces with mortar and heavy machinegun fire before dawn. This came after Kurdish fighters had gained control of a strategic hill overlooking the town on Friday. Meanwhile, ...back at the shouting match, the spittle had reached unprecedented levels... Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdistan Region has decided to send reinforcement troops to Kobani next week to aid Kurds. Kobani and its surroundings have been under attack since mid-September, with the ISIL holy warriors capturing dozens of nearby Kurdish villages. The ISIL advance in the region has forced tens of thousands of Syrian Kurds to flee into Turkey, which is a stone's throw from Kobani. Turkey continues to block any delivery of military, medical or humanitarian assistance into Kobani where the ISIL Death Eaters are feared to be aiming at massive bloodletting. Analysts say Ankara, having already won the US green light, plans to let the Death Eaters seize the Kurdish town of Kobani before sending tanks and troops to fight them in a bid to capture and possibly annex the Syrian territory.
