Turkish police arrested 15 suspects in the Aegean Izmir province for their alleged links to the PKK/KCK terror group on Thursday, security sources said.
Anti-terror and intelligence police carried out simultaneous operations early morning to nab the suspects.
The arrests came after the Izmir Public Prosecutor's Office issued arrest warrants for 15 suspects, who were allegedly working on behalf of the PKK/KCK.
During the police search at the suspects' addresses, the rags of PKK, and some books supporting the terror group were seized.
