Turkey opposes the Assad regime and the Ad Dawla al-Islamiyya/Islamic State
(IS), said Prime Minister Ahmed Davutoglu, reported Turkish media. According to
him, the main reason for all the problems in Syria is the Assad regime.
He denied the words of the head of the opposition Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi/Republican
People's Party (RPP) Kemal Kilicdaroglu that Turkey's government supports the
IS.
According to Davutoglu, if Kilicdaroglu has evidence that the Turkish government
"supports terrorists", he must show it to the public.
The head of the opposition RPP said on the eve that the government of Turkey
supports the IS in Syria and Iraq.
Earlier on Wednesday, Davutoglu said that Turkey is "the only force that will be
able to protect the rights of residents of the Syrian city of Kobani".
Meanwhile, the fightings for Kobani (aka Ayn al-Arab) is continuing. Information
reported from the place is highly controversial. On Wednesday, the command of
the Kurds has acknowledged that the IS units captured 30% of the city. On
Thursday, they said, as a result of air strikes, IS units retreated, retaining
only a few houses on the outskirts of Kobani.
However, on Friday a number of Arab media and the "Syrian monitoring group"
reported that the IS units again moved to the center of the city and captured
the headquarters of the Kurdish group Yekineyen Parastina/People's Protection
Units (PPU). According to Al-Arabiya, the IS controls up to 40% of Kobani.
Meanwhile in Turkey, the actions of Yazidi Kurds and supporters of the Partiya
Karkerên Kurdistan/Kurdistan Workers' Party (KWP) are continuing. KWP and
Yazidis demand from Ankara to send units to Syria to protect Kobani.
Mass pogroms are taking place in the Turkish provinces of Diyarbakir, Mardin,
Siirt, Mus, Van and Batman. Yazidi Kurds and supporters of the KWP attack the
Muslim Kurds, who in turn are organized into self-defense units.

Van, Batman and Tunceli. In addition, all flights to the province of Diyarbakir
