Beirut--Islamic State group fighters re-entered Syria's Tal Abyad on Tuesday, seizing a district from the Kurdish forces who captured the border town two weeks ago, a monitor said.

"A cell of Islamic State fighters infiltrated Tal Abyad and took control of a district in the eastern outskirts of the town," said Rami Abdel Rahman, director of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
