A surprise assault by the "Islamic State" (ISIS) terrorist group has trapped tens of thousands of terrified people on the Syrian border with Turkey, Doctors Without Borders said Monday, warning the situation was "unacceptable".
Pablo Marco, the regional manager of the charity known by its French acronym MSF, said concerns were rising for a large civilian population less than five kilometers (three miles) from advancing ISIS terrorists.
"We are talking about 100,000 people who are trapped a few kilometers fromISIS. They are terrified, there is nowhere to go," Marco said in a telephone interview with AFP.
