Turkish-Syrian border (CNN) — In the besieged Syrian city of Kobani, precious medicine rains from the sky.

U.S. airplanes are dropping medical supplies and weapons into this Kurdish city as defenders try to beat back the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, or ISIS.
Not long ago, Kobani’s fall to ISIS seemed certain. But foreign airstrikes and airdropped supplies could help turn the tide.
