In a social media post on Sunday, Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said that the newly arrested suspects were actively involved with IS, providing support and financing to the group. Police confiscated many unlicensed hunting guns and handguns.
Turkey has listed IS as a terrorist organization since 2013, and has accused IS of conducting a series of deadly attacks in the country since 2015.
