Turkish intelligence (MIT) has conducted a cross-border security operation that brought ten members of the ISIS terrorist group to Turkish territory after they appeared on Interpol's Red Notice list, according to Independent Turkish.
Turkish intelligence did not disclose the country in which the operation was carried out, nor have the identities of the ten detainees been publicly confirmed. MIT has issued no additional official statement regarding the details of the pursuit or the circumstances of the arrests.
The operation is part of Ankara's sustained campaign to pursue ISIS members beyond its borders. MIT has conducted similar operations in multiple countries over recent years as part of a broader Turkish strategy aimed at dismantling sleeper cells and cutting off the group's funding and recruitment pipelines across the region.
Interpol's Red Notice is the highest level of international alert for tracking suspects across borders; placement on the list obliges member states to cooperate in the arrest and extradition of the named individual.
