...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS/ISIS), Kurdish military sources told ARA News on Sunday.

This progress enabled Kobane's defenders to liberate Rodko highway (linking Aleppo with Hasakah).

Speaking to ARA News on the phone, Shorsh Dijla, a fighter in the ranks of the YPG said that the joint forces liberated early Sunday the villages of Zalkhik, Qomshi, and Brkh Batan, taking control of the entire strategic hill of Tel Saifi, which extends from Serrin to Qara Qozak bridge.

Dijla added that the Peshmerga forces stationed heavy weapons on Saifi hill and began shelling the IS military units around the town of Serrin (45 km south of Kobane).

"This accelerated the evacuation movement of bandidos holy warriors towards the town of Ain Issa and Raqqa," the source added.

In other developments, the YPG fighter Saeed Judi stated to ARA News that the so-called Abu Anas al-Halabi, IS-linked head of Manbij prison (who used to supervise Kurdish detainees in the IS-led prisons in northern Syria) was captured by the Kurdish forces on Sunday, during festivities in the vicinity of Barkh Batan village south of Kobane.

"Al-Halabi's guards were killed during the festivities," Judi added.

According to Kurdish military sources, the IS bandidos holy warriors are showing less resistance in the battles of Kobane's countryside.
