ISIS beheads 3 Kurdish female fightersAbove two dated. I wish I had the chance to pay the degenerate back.======================Islamist militants tried overnight to seize a border post in Kobani, Syria, on the frontier with Turkey but were repulsed by Kurdish fighters, a monitoring group said.
Islamic State (Isis) fighters have been trying to capture the town, known as Ayn al-Arab in Arabic, for over a month, pressing their assault despite US-led air strikes on their positions and the deaths of hundreds of their fighters.
The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said on Sunday it had confirmed that 815 people had been killed in the fighting for the town over the past 40 days, more than half of them Isis fighters.
Idris Nassan, a local Kurdish official, said Islamic State fighters had shelled Kobani’s border gate on Saturday night but Kurdish fighters had pushed them back in the south and west.
“Of course they will try again tonight. Last night they brought new reinforcements, new supplies, and they are pushing hard,” he said.
