As this video of FSA-unit driving from Turkey into #Kobane shows, border crossing fully controlled by YPG, not ISIS: http://t.co/gzpQn3xq3f

Maybe not 100% correct but according to my best knowledge these are the current front lines inside #Kobane. –> pic.twitter.com/tnQx0c4IX8

Masoud Barzani, President of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, explains why they have only sent a small peshmerga force to Kobane:
We offered to send a large force to #Kobane, but #PYD leadership said they don’t need a fighting force, only a support artillery unit. 4/5

This force is on its way to #Kobane & we wish them success. We are ready to send more #peshmerga forces to #Kobane, if we are asked. 5/5
