US President Barack Obama met on Tuesday with defence ministers from 22 countries, acknowledging that he is "deeply concerned" about the advances ISIL is making in Iraq's Anbar province and in Syria, including the Kurdish town of Kobane.

Obama also said that there are going to be "setbacks" on the operation against ISIL.
