Turkish and Syrian intelligence services have arrested 10 people suspected of having links to ISIL (ISIS).<\/p>\n
Turkish state broadcaster TRT reported on Saturday that the arrests were made in neighbouring Syria following a joint operation.<\/p>\n
Those arrested allegedly took part in what officials described as \u201cterrorist attacks\u201d in Turkiye.<\/p>\n
Turkiye\u2019s National Intelligence Organization said the suspects were apprehended as part of a targeted operation, during which Turkish and Syrian agents closely monitored their movements.<\/p>\n
Interpol had issued international alerts, also known as Red Notices, for all 10 individuals. A Red Notice is similar to an international arrest warrant, through which Interpol requests law enforcement agencies worldwide to locate and arrest a person pending extradition or surrender.<\/p>\n
One of the detainees allegedly has links to those responsible for the twin bombings in the Turkish capital, Ankara, in 2015, in which more than 100 people were killed.<\/p>\n
Another suspect, Ali Bora, is believed to have served as ISIL\u2019s intelligence chief for Turkiye after joining the group in 2014.<\/p>\n
During questioning, the detainees allegedly admitted they were members of ISIL and had received training and operational instructions from the group.<\/p>\n
Ankara and Damascus have deepened ties since Syria\u2019s de facto leader, President Ahmed al-Sharaa, and his forces overthrew longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Turkish and Syrian intelligence services have arrested 10 people suspected of having links to ISIL (ISIS).
