Syria Lights The Fuse Of Schism
Fighting between Kurdish forces and Islamic State (Isis) militants for the Syrian border town of Kobani fuelled rising tensions inside Turkey on Tuesday as thousands of protesters took to the streets to voice anger and frustration about the inaction of the Ankara government.
On top of that, people recently started to warn about Isis militants getting even closer to Kobani and that we had to prepare ourselves to leave at any moment. Within 24 hrs, my uncle came to our house to warn that Isis militants were inside Kobani. We were so terrified to hear that and thought of the massacres that usually followed any Isis attack. The Syrian army had pulled out of our town long time ago to leave Kobani facing its destiny alone. We left all our valuables at home amid heavy clashes between Kurdish fighters and Isis.

At least 400 people have been killed during three weeks of fighting between Isis and Kurdish fighters in and around the Syrian border town of Kobani, reports Reuters, citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group in London. The organisation said it had documented 412 deaths from sources on the ground, but the real figure was likely double that.

Many are angry at the Turkish armed forces' perceived inaction getting involved in the fight against Isis on their own doorstep and preventing Kurds wanting to fight Isis from crossing the border into Syria. Some have claimed that Turkey kobani,kobane,protest used the desperation of the Kurds in Kobani to extract political concessions from them before allowing reinforcements and supplies to reach the 2,000 to 3,000 fighters of the People's Protection Units (YPG) defending the town.
