After weeks of seeming reluctance , coalition forces stepped up the pace of air strikes around Kobani over the weekend. The Pentagon described five strikes around Kobani on Tuesday. Syrian President Bashar Assad has four secret chemical weapons facilities and used them as recently as August, according to a UN briefing. Tensions are especially high in Turkey, where Kurds have fought a 3-decade-long battle for autonomy and where Syria's violence has taken an especially heavy toll.
Turkish military fired tear gas on the crowd, who had been shouting slogans and flashing victory signs representing support for the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) and their affiliate in Syria, the Democratic Unity Party (PYD). The PKK is considered a terrorist group in Turkey, where it has conducted a three decade long insurrection against the government, which has a long history of violently suppressing Kurdish rights.
The men of Measêr fully support Öcalan's statement, because they are fed up with being stalled by the Turkish government, which keeps bringing up the issue of the Kurdish peace process every time an election peeks around the corner, but which, when pushes comes to shove, consistently fails to act upon its promises. They believe Öcalan set the deadline so that the implementation of promises made in the negotiations so far can no longer be postponed — and in light of the events in Kobanê, the government will be forced to reveal its true face.
I live in in Kobani with my three brothers and six sisters, working as a nurse in a private clinic to earn a living after the death of my parents. We were preparing for the celebration of Eid al-Adha and even bought a sheep to slaughtered. All of a sudden, the TV started to carry news about Isis advancing in Kobani, causing heavy losses among civilians. My sisters and I were really terrified especially as we were women. We were afraid of suffering the same fate as Yazidi women who were bought as slaves for Isis leaders.
Australian authorities believe that there are at least 60 Australians fighting in the Middle East with terrorist groups, chiefly ISIS, and that at least 100 more support terrorist groups through funding and recruitment. Counterterrorism police have carried out raids in Australia in recent days. Retired U.S. Gen. John Allen, who is coordinating the international effort against ISIS, said that he expects a campaign against Mosul within a year.
If ISIS, also known as ISIL and the Islamic State, takes Kobani, it will control a complete swath of land from its self-declared capital of Raqqa, Syria, on the Euphrates River to the Turkish border, more than 60 miles away. The Sunni extremist kobane news group's reported entry into the city comes a day after Turkish lawmakers voted overwhelmingly to authorize military force against ISIS in Iraq and Syria. Australia decided hours later to join the U.S.-led air campaign against ISIS in Iraq.
Turkey has found itself in a deadlock. It wanted to get freedom of action in the north of Syria, something the coalition forces do not support. On the other hand, Turkish Islamists are attempting to split kobane news the Kurdish forces, but fail to,” the expert said. All of the female Peshmerga are volunteers. The mothers make room to care for their children and train twice a week. The other females train every day.
Army Major Curtis Kellogg said Baghdad had asked for helicopter support near Fallujah to push back militants west of the capital Baghdad. The low-flying helicopters give the US military greater capacity to identify kobane news individual targets and provide close air support to Iraqi troops in combat, suggesting close cooperation with forces on the ground. But they also expose US troops to far greater risk from ground fire.
In early August, ISIS seized several towns under Kurdish control, displacing Yazidis, Christians and other religious minority groups. Although the United Nations says that the capture of Sinjar may have displaced as many as 33,000 families, that number is not yet included in the official data. Formed by disaffected Iraqi Army officers who were left without jobs after the Americans dissolved the military in 2003.
