Turkish police arrested 21 people over their alleged links to Daesh/ISIS terror group, officials said on Wednesday.
Provincial anti-terror police and intelligence teams along with special forces conducted simultaneous operations in the Altinordu and Unye districts of northern Ordu province and arrested 10 suspects, all of them Iraqi nationals, said a source, who asked not to be named due to restrictions on speaking to the media.
The suspects, who were active in various units of the Daesh/ISIS terror group, were rounded up following a six-month-long technical and physical surveillance by anti-terror teams.
