The Syrian troops on Thursday killed tens of "terrorists" in the countryside of the predominantly Kurdish city of Ayn al-Arab, also known as Kobane, in northern Syria, according to the state news agency SANA.
The entry of Peshmerga fighters from Iraq to battle the Islamic State (IS) militant group in Syria 's predominantly Kurdish city of Ayn al-Arab aims at guaranteeing the interests of Turkey in that Kurdish region, analysts say.
As many as 50 fighters of the Islamic State (IS) terror group were either killed or injured on Sunday during fresh clashes with the Kurdish fighters in Syria's predominantly Kurdish city of Ayn al-Arab on the Syrian-Turkish borders, according to the pan-Arab al-Mayadeen TV.
The Islamic State (IS) militants captured one of the weapons shipments airdropped by the United States to the Kurdish fighters of the People Protection Units (YPG) in the city of Ayn al-Arab in northern Syria, a monitoring group said Tuesday.
