Counter-Offensives.

This is coolbert:

ISIL fights back! Kobani all over again!

ISIL hardly down and out. As noted by DEBKAfile

"ISIS recovers from Syrian Kurdish assaults, fights to recapture Kobani"

25 June.

"The Islamic State Thursday stalled the Syrian Kurdish YPG's advance 50 km short of the ISIS capital of Raqqa and launched two counter-offensives to reverse a series of Kurdish successes:  A large Islamist force disguised in Kurdish uniforms stormed Kobani on the Turkish border and regained parts of the town lost to the Kurds last October. A second force attacked Syrian and Kurdish forces defending the second largest Kurdish Syrian town of Hasaka"

Efforts to combat ISIL not a cake-walk AND NEVER WILL BE!  ISIL is resilient, resourceful and RUTHLESS!!.
