At least 800 people have been killed in a key Syrian city over the past 40 days, a Syrian monitoring group said Sunday.

Most of those killed were ISIS militants and Syrian Kurdish fighters, battling for control of Kobani, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

The monitoring group based in London broke down the casualty figures starting September 16, the day ISIS began its attack on the Syrian Kurdish enclave.

More than half of the 815 people killed — 481 — were fighters with ISIS, which calls itself the Islamic State, the Syrian Observatory said in a statement, CNN informs.
