Today, Kurdish troops liberated the remaining last four quarters of the city that were still under the IS control.
On Monday, the Kurish self-defense forces eliminated over 40 IS jihadists. The rest of the IS fighters are fleeing and trying to hide in villages nearby.
Kobani, one of the largest cities in the Kurdish region bordering Turkey, was besieged by the Islamic State extremist group in September. Since then, Kurdish forces, backed by the US-led airstrikes on IS positions, have been trying to drive the extremists out of the city.
In December 2014, Syrian Kurds leader Saleh Muslim Mohammad said that the main goal of Kurdish forces fighting against Islamic State was full liberation of Kobani. Turkey is said to be hosting more than 190,000 refugees from Kobani.
