The "massacre" in the Syrian town of Kobani on Thursday, June 25 was the result of the Turkish government's years of support for Islamic State militants, the co-leader of Turkey' pro-Kurdish party said.

Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) joint leader Figen Yuksekdag also told reporters there was a "high probability" that the attackers on Thursday had entered Kobani from Turkey. Ankara has denied such allegations.
