| [Hurriyet Daily News] At least 780 people, including 350 foreigners, remain in detention some of whom have been convicted for suspected links to the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS), according to the Turkish Justice Ministry. The Justice Ministry released a report on Jan. 11 saying a total of 725 people, who are suspected of being ISIS members, were currently in prison. An additional 55 have already been convicted for being members of the terrorist group. The report has stated that 73 people have been convicted of being members of the al-Qaeda terrorist organization - 10 others are still detained. Since 2015, ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... has been fighting several terrorist groups both at home and along its border with Syria. The number of injured people who have received treatment in Turkey after evacuation from the war-torn Syrian city of Aleppo has risen to 482, according to a provincial government along Turkey’s border with Syria. The Hatay Governor’s Office said that 76 of the 482 injured Aleppan civilians shuffled off the mortal coil despite all efforts, while 102 others were discharged. Late last month Syrian opposition forces and the regime reached a cease-fire deal, brokered by Turkey and Russia, to evacuate civilians from eastern Aleppo to safe areas in opposition-held Idlib. So far, some 44,000 people have been evacuated from the area, according to Turkish authorities. |
