Njulaina - Pejuang Negara Islam telah dihalau keluar dari Kobani, bandar Kurdish
yang melintasi sempadan Syria-Turki, selepas minggu pertempuran berat, menurut
sumber-sumber Kurdi demikian kepada RT.
Seorang komandan Kurdi berkata ISIS berundur semalam - menarik balik
sebanyak 2 km sebelah timur dan 9 km sebelah barat.
Orang Kurd kini penjelasan kota. Kelompok Islam tinggalkan di belakang
pelaku bom bunuh diri bersembunyi di runtuhan bangunan-bangunan di bandar.
"Kita masih boleh mendengar tembakan dan letupan sporadis yang
datang dari Kobani," RT Murad Gazdiev laporan dari sempadan Turki-Syria.
Walau bagaimanapun, pengumuman kemenangan dari pejuang Kurdis masih belum

ISIS fighters WITHDRAW
from Syria's EMBATTLED
Kobani - RT SOURCES . . .
Islamic State fighters have been driven out of
Kobani, the Kurdish town that strad-dles the Syrian-Turkish border, after weeks
of heavy fighting, according to Kurdish sources speaking to RT.
A Kurdish commander said that ISIS retreated
overnight – withdrawing by 2 km east and 9 km west.
The Kurds are now clearing the city. The Islamists
have left behind suicide bombers hiding in the ruins of the various buildings
in the city.
"We can still hear sporadic gunfire and
explosions coming from Kobani," RT's Murad Gazdiev reports from the
Turkish-Syrian border.
However, a victory announcement from the
Kurdish fighters is yet to be made because the whole of the city has not been
secured.
Hanya beberapa hari lalu Kobani telah dihapus kira2nya
dan telah diramalkan jatuh kepada pejuang IS, bahkan oleh sekutu Kurdis
terdekat. Militan Negara Islam mengawal hampir keseluruhan sempadan di antara
Syria dan Turki jadi ia adalah penting bagi mereka yang strategik untuk
mengawal bandar sempadan.
Pada hari Rabu dan Khamis sahaja lebih dari 14 serangan bom dilakukan di
mana 16 bangunan di Kobani telah musnah, sumber mengatakan kepada Haaretz.
Akhbar itu juga melaporkan bahawa sehingga 20 % peratus dpd bandar mungkin masih dikawal oleh militan IS. Pertempuran
untuk bandar sempadan strategik yang penting telah menewaskan hampir 600 orang.
Satu kenyataan hari ini dari US Komando Pusat
mengatakan bahawa serangan udara "telah terus melambat IS pendahuluan,
tetapi keadaan keselamatan di darat di Kobani masih rapuh." Ia juga
memberi amaran "Kami memerlukan lebih banyak serangan udara, dan juga
senjata dan peluru untuk melawan mereka di atas darat."
Berita dari Kobani datang sebagai baru PBB Hak Asasi Manusia Pesuruhjaya
Zeid Ra'ad al Hussein, berkata IS adalah ", pergerakan berpotensi
pembunuhan yang kejam."
Beliau berkata bahawa kumpulan adalah "hasil
dari perkahwinan yang sesat dan mematikan satu bentuk baru nihilisme dengan era
digital."
Only a few days ago Kobani had been written off and
was predicted to fall to IS fighters, even by the Kurds' closest allies. The
Islamic State militants control almost entire border between Syria and Turkey
so it was vital for them strategically to take control of the border town.
On Wednesday and Thursday alone more than 14 bombing
raids were carried out in which 16 buildings in Kobani were destroyed, sources
told Haaretz.
The newspaper also reported that up to 20 percent of
the town may still be controlled by IS militants. The battle for the
strategically-important border town has already cost the lives of nearly 600
people.
A Thursday statement from US Central Command said
that the airstrikes “had continued to slow IS advances, but that the security
situation on the ground in Kobani remains tenuous.” It also warned “We need
more airstrikes, as well as weaponry and ammunition to fight them on the
ground.”
The news from Kobani comes as the new UN Human
Rights Commissioner Zeid Ra’ad al Hussein, said that the IS is “a diabolical,
potentially genocidal movement.”
He said that group is “the product of a perverse and
lethal marriage of a new form of nihilism with the digital age.”
