A
new video has emerged from northern Syria showing the weapons the US
says is sending to Kurdish forces end up in the hands of the ISIL
terrorists.

The video shows masked insurgents inspecting the military equipment
which was airdropped in areas controlled by ISIL near the Syrian border
city of Kobani. http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2014/10/21/383087/video-shows-us-arms-in-hands-of-isil/
The supplies include several boxes of hand grenades and RPGs, as parachutes used for the airdrops were clearly visible on the ground in the video.
The US Central Command said on Sunday it has airdropped weapons and ammunition, and medical supplies for the Kurdish forces defending Kobani.
It said the airdrops, which have been provided by Kurdish authorities in Iraq, were "intended to enable continued resistance against ISIL's attempts to overtake Kobani."
The US and its allies also say they are carrying out airstrikes against the Takfiris in Syria and Iraq in order to curb their advances in the region. The air raids have so far failed to halt the insurgents’ military gains.
The ISIL advance in the region has forced tens of thousands of Syrian Kurds to flee into Turkey.
Turkey continues to block any delivery of military, medical or humanitarian assistance into Kobani where the ISIL terrorists are feared to be aiming at massive bloodletting.
This comes as the US and its Arab allies have been backing ISIL as a tool to put more pressure on Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad. The group has committed heinous crimes in Syria and Iraq.
