866 Suspected Militants Detained
Turkish police have detained 866 people in raids across the country. They are suspected of being members of the outlawed PKK, ISIS and other militant groups. Some of them are also accused of attacking security forces and staging illegal demonstrations. The raids began Friday after a series of what the government calls ‘terror attacks’. Last Monday, a suicide bombing in Suruc killed 32 people. The government suspects ISIS is responsible. Since then, several police officers and soldiers have been killed.
