ANKARA, Turkey (AP) -- Turkey's president says the Syrian border town of Kobani is about to fall to militants from the Islamic State group.<br />
<br />
Recep Tayyip Erdogan made the comments Tuesday during an address to Syrian refugees at a camp in Gaziantep province, near the border with Syria.<br />
<br />
Erdogan said aerial bombardments alone may not be enough to stop the Islamic State group and called for support of opposition forces.<br />
<br />
"There has to be cooperation with those who are fighting on the ground."<br />
<br />
Just days ago, Turkey said it wouldn't let Kobani fall.<br />
<br />
Warplanes believed to have been sent by the U.S.-led coalition on Tuesday struck positions held by Islamic State militants near the town.
