Dec 10-16 is characterized by more sporadic fighting, and continuing shelling and 22x Coalition airstrikes. In the east, ISIS attempts to infiltrate YPG lines near the Cultural Center Dec
10, 14 and 15, which the YPG repel. ISIS also continues to probe YPG positions near the border crossing Dec 12 with confused reporting of a suicide attack nearby. Overall, the YPG
extend their control slightly in the east with small-scale operations, helped by consistent Coalition airstrikes in the city and roads leading into it. In the south. the YPG continue to
extend patrols south, cutting the Aleppo-Tirmuk road. The south sees consistent combat throughout the period involving heavy weapons on both sides. YPG advances are supported by
Peshmerga artillery and Coalition airstrikes. On Dec 16, ISIS targets Kobani civilians with 50x shells, killing 3x civilians in apparent frustration. Casualties among fighters during this
period are very unclear however.
