Kurds blame Turkey as suicide bombers hit Kobani
Turkey's main Kurdish party accused the government of turning a blind eye to Islamic State militants on its soil on Saturday after suicide bombers attacked the Syrian border town of Kobani, one of them using a car that had apparently come from Turkey.
Four Islamic State militants blew themselves up in Kobani, one detonating a car bomb at the Mursitpinar border crossing. At least 30 people were killed in clashes across the town, a monitoring group and local officials said.
Kurdish militia have been holding off Islamic State fighters for more than two months in the town, known as Ayn al-Arab in Arabic. Neither side has gained a decisive advantage despite US-led air strikes meant to push back the Islamist insurgents.
