"They continued to pour troops into Kobani, which means there are many more targets in and around Kobani.

"We believe that our air strikes have contributed to this effort, we believe that still threatens Kobani sievi ISIL, but still control the Kurdish town. Right now, we believe Kobani being protection and in the hands of the Kurdish militia. sievi That does not mean there will not be some areas of Kobani temporarily in the hands or in the hands of ISIL. This is a situation may change any at any time, but in general, our assessment today is the Kurdish militia still maintained control of Kobani. "

"That has happened in fact in some areas. They keep some of tactical positions in other areas. That's what was expected. In some areas, such as Amerli, Mosul Dam, Haditha, the raids are very useful. Obviously we focus around Kobani to perform air strikes in order to provide humanitarian assistance and relief in that, and obviously to the soldiers are fighting against IS preparation time on the field. But in Anbar province in western Iraq, we hope to be able to prevent or stop the initiative in terms of tactics and their momentum there. "

"Let's hope that the focus on Kobani did not distract the attention of the coalition forces from the fact that ISIL has made progress in their march closer to Baghdad, and there were reports that the ISIL forces are getting closer capital of Iraq and that is very worrying - some analysts have predicted they could even knock on the door to the Iraqi capital tomorrow. "
