Current Situation in Kobanê! | 00:00 am Clashes have become heavier at night. Warplanes of coalition powers have made air bombardment to ISIS side (3 or 4 times after 00.00). However how effective these bombardments are and how much it was made to the direct position are unknown, after the bombardment the sounds of clashes have stopped. At 1:45 a.m. when I wrote this message, flights have been proceeding... Additionally, ISIS members that had entered the suburbs of Kobanê from the eastern front had to retreat because they fell into the trap that had been set by YPG (Peoples Protection Units) fighters. This is one of the good news about today. It is true that there have been a mobility towards the border, however, there is not a mass movement. Also the information that Turkish soldiers have left the border is DEFINITELY and CERTAINLY WRONG! Near Etmanek on the border line, soldiers are patrolling constantly. There are also Turkish Armed Forces (TAF/ TSK) tanks at the hills across the Mürşitpınar border gate. Likewise, at a distance of almost 500 meters to Mürşitpınar gate, soldiers have been waiting with their armoured and water cannon vehicles… Translator: Fairouz
