Arrest of 33 "ISIS Members" in Turkey

Turkish police have arrested 33 individuals suspected of having connections to ISIS. According to Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya, the suspects were "in the process of preparing and searching to carry out an act before the upcoming local elections." The nationwide elections are scheduled for March 31. Anti-terror police in Sakarya, northwestern Turkey, found weapons, money, and "organizational documents" during raids. Yerlikaya stated, "We will not tolerate any terrorists... We will continue our fight without interruption through the distinguished efforts of our security forces." He added that the network was providing personnel to war zones and financial support to ISIS, operating through mosques and illegal religious schools.
