In a significant crackdown on potential terror threats, Turkish authorities have detained 115 suspects linked to the Islamic State (ISIS) who were allegedly plotting attacks during the Christmas and New Year celebrations. The Istanbul police conducted coordinated operations, resulting in the arrests of individuals believed to be preparing for violent acts targeting holiday events. This operation follows earlier warnings from Turkish intelligence about threats posed by ISIS affiliates in the region. Additionally, Turkish agents captured a senior ISIS member on the Afghan-Pakistan border, highlighting ongoing efforts to combat terrorism. Officials have stressed that while these arrests have thwarted immediate threats, vigilance remains crucial as concerns about further attacks persist.
