US and partner nations launched 21 air strikes in Syria and 13 in Iraq over a 24-hour period, the US military said on Monday as it intensified its assault on Islamic State around Kobani, Syria.
Seventeen of the strikes since Sunday targeted Kobani, a contested city on the border with Turkey where the Islamic militants are battling for control, the Combined Joint Task Force said in a statement.
The strikes in Iraq targeted near Mosul, Tal Afar, Haditha and Falluja, it said.
