On Saturday 27, the coalition carried out 12 new airstrikes: in Syria, IS was targeted again near Kobane in 6 raids, while 6 other attacks hit the militias almost in the same areas in which they were targeted on December 24 and December 25 (Al Asad, Mosul, Falluja, Al Qaim and Baiji).
On Sunday 28, the Task Force carried out 13 other attacks: 8 in Syria and 5 in Iraq. Again, Kobane was the epicenter of coalition’s airstrikes in Syria, while IS positions were once again targeted near Sinjar and Mosul.
Airstrikes intensity aside, given the fact that the targets have been almost the same, it would be legitimate to suppose that Islamic State is still capable of controlling and holding its position (at least so far).
