Türkiye detains over 20 in operations targeting FETÖ, ISIS networks

More than 20 suspects have been detained in separate operations targeting FETÖ and ISIS networks across Türkiye.

The FETÖ operation, coordinated from Istanbul, was carried out across six Turkish provinces. The suspects were taken to police stations for questioning and other necessary procedures, according to Turkish media.

During searches of their residences, authorities seized numerous organisational documents and digital materials. The identities and addresses of the suspects were established through an examination of information obtained from a confidential informant.

Separately, six suspects accused of financing ISIS members were detained in an operation conducted by the Istanbul Counterterrorism Department. Searches of their addresses resulted in the seizure of $13,000, digital materials and organisational documents.
