Ankara (IINA) – Turkey's security forces detained 65 suspects in anti-terrorist raids carried out simultaneously across three Turkish provinces on Tuesday, Anadolu Agency reported citing security sources.
The operations were carried out in Konya, Kocaeli and Istanbul provinces early morning targeting suspected Daesh members, the sources said.
In Konya, central Anatolian province, 30 suspects were detained; 14 others were detained in northwestern Kocaeli province, while 21 suspects were held in Istanbul’s Sultanbeyli, Pendik and Umraniye districts.
At least one suspect reportedly got injured while trying to run away from the police in Istanbul and was taken to a hospital. Another suspect fled and disappeared into nearby forestland.
The operations came a day after two policemen were martyred during a raid at a residential building in southeastern Diyarbakir province. Seven suspected Daesh members were also killed during the gun battle in Kayapinar district Monday, while 12 others were arrested.
Daesh is among terrorist organizations accused of killing 102 people in two back-to-back bombings at a peaceful rally in the Turkish capital of Ankara on October 10.
