<\/p>\nT\u00fcrkiye\u2019s National Intelligence Organization (MIT) helped dismantle a Daesh cell preparing sabotage attacks in Damascus, with three suspects detained and a bomb-laden vehicle seized after intelligence shared with Syrian authorities led to a coordinated operation.<\/p>\n
The operation followed intelligence work by MIT, which identified a Daesh-linked cell operating in the Syrian capital and passed the information to Syria\u2019s Internal Security Service Command and General Intelligence Service.<\/p>\n
Syrian intelligence units then monitored the suspects\u2019 movements closely and identified their exact location before launching a raid. The operation resulted in the detention of three Daesh members \u2013 Omar Hashem, Muhammad Hammad and Hussein Khalef.<\/p>\n
At the same time, bomb disposal teams intervened to neutralize a vehicle packed with explosives that had been prepared for remote detonation at a key location. Authorities said the vehicle contained large quantities of C4 and TNT capable of causing major destruction.<\/p>\n
The detained suspects were transferred to the counterterrorism department of Syria\u2019s General Intelligence Service for further interrogation and to help identify additional members or supporters linked to the cell.<\/p>\n
Security sources said the raid prevented a planned attack believed to have been ordered after a recent Daesh audio message urging terrorists to prepare for operations.<\/p>\n
