Eruptions in Kobani. The Syrian town along the Turkish border is center stage in the fight against Islamic State militants. The relentless sound of warfare as the U.S. says it has conducted four strikes on the town, hitting five vehicles and one occupied building used by the militant group.

In Turkey, front row seats to the front line in a fight that rights groups say has killed more than 800 people in the town over the past 40 days. More than half of them are Islamic State fighters.
