REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, BAGHDAD - The bodies of 150 members of an Iraqi Sunni tribe which fought Islamic State have been found in a mass grave, according to security officials on Thursday.

Islamic State militants took the men from their villages to the city of Ramadi and killed them on Wednesday night and buried them, an official in a police operations center and another security official told Reuters.

Iraqi Kurdistan is prepared to deploy more forces to the Syrian border town of Kobani if asked, the region's President Masoud Barzani said in a statement on Thursday.

The first 10 Iraqi Kurdish peshmerga fighters entered Kobani through the border crossing with Turkey on Thursday, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
