Kurdish forces on Friday regained control of a number of Syrian regime-held sites in the northeastern city of al Hasakah. 

Kurdish and government forces engaged in an all-out battle for control of al Hasakah. 

Local sources said that Syrian regime jets bombed Kurdish-held areas of al Hasakah for the first time in the five-year-old war.

The Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) is a key US ally in the fight against Daesh group.
