Turkish authorities have detained 125 more suspected Islamic State members in nationwide raids across 25 provinces, continuing a sweep aimed at preventing attacks during holiday festivities. This operation follows previous detentions of hundreds of IS suspects. A recent clash in Yalova resulted in the deaths of six IS suspects and three police officers. Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya stated the raids target those who threaten national unity, emphasizing the state's power against such threats. IS has a history of attacks in Turkey, including a 2017 nightclub shooting.
