Kurdish fighters killed more than 20 ISIS
militants during continued fighting in the
villages around Kobane which was liberated
earlier this week after months of bitter street
fighting. In one village, a Kurd was today
pictured standing over the bodies of Islamic
extremists after they were killed in Halimce, a
village east of the town...
Kurdish forces recaptured the town on
January 26 in a symbolic blow to the jihadists
who have seized large swathes of territory in
their onslaught across Syria and Iraq. But the
town is now characterised by demolished
buildings, with heavily armed fighters roaming
otherwise deserted, rubble-strewn streets.
Although their town has been liberated,
thousands of residents are now settling into
Turkey's newest refugee camp for an indefinite
stay and have been warned not to return until
the area has been fully secured. (Courtesy - UK
