ISIS intensifies offensive against Kurds in Syria
Kurdish official Nawaf Khalil said members of the ISIS group are trying to capture an area near the Turkish border that would link it with their positions in eastern Syria. He and other activists said the fighting is concentrated in the region of Kobani, also known as Ayn Arab. Mustafa Osso, a Turkey-based Kurdish activist who has wide contacts in northern Syria, says the aim of the offensive is to take the entire Kobani area. Osso says those standing against ISIS are mostly members of the People’s Protection Units, the armed wing of the Kurdish Democratic Union Party.
On Wednesday, ISIS captured three villages near Kobani and pressed forward toward the border town.
