Referring to the Iraqi Kurdish forces who had entered the besieged city in early November, the Peshmerga source said, "The first group has left Kobani and is en route to the airport right now."
Syrian Kurdish fighters, who have been fighting off an offensive by the IS terrorists in Kobani since nearly three months ago, have embraced the support of the Peshmerga fighters, PressTV reported.
Under pressure for its refusal to allow Kurdish reinforcements to cross its border into Syria, Ankara allowed passage to the first group of Iraqi Peshmergas into Syria in late October.
According to reports, the intense fighting for the strategic city of Kobani has forced over 200,000 people to take refuge in neighboring Turkey.
The IS terrorists control some parts of Syria and Iraq. They are engaged in crimes against humanity in the areas under their control.
Since late September, the US and its allies have been conducting airstrikes against the IS inside Syria without any authorization from Damascus or a UN mandate.
Washington has also been carrying out similar air raids against IS positions in Iraq since August. However, the raids have so far failed to dislodge the IS.
