More than 3,000 suspects have been detained since June 2023. Some of these suspected IS members settled in Turkey after the collapse of the jihadist group's self-proclaimed “caliphate” in 2019.
In 2015-2016, Turkey suffered numerous attacks claimed by ISIS, which killed hundreds of people, and at the end of January this year, Ankara arrested two suspected members of the so-called Islamic State, who were accused of killing a man in a Catholic church in Istanbul.
