Kurdish official appeals for weapons for Kobani
None
MURSITPINAR - A Syrian Kurdish official called on the international community on Thursday to allow weapons into the border town of Kobani, saying the town is still in danger from Islamic State militants.
Idriss Nassan, deputy head of Kobani's foreign relations committee, said the Islamic State group can bring in reinforcements and weapons at any time and endanger the town near Turkey. He said airstrikes by the US-led coalition are "effective" but not enough to defeat the jihadis.
