A female PKK terrorist has been captured following an operation at Istanbul's Atatürk Airport on Thursday.

The woman, identified as Ebru Fırat, was caught after a tipoff was given to the intelligence units of Istanbul Police Department.

Fırat, known within the terrorist group by the codename "Amara" and suspected to have arrived in Istanbul for an attack, was brought to police headquarters for questioning.

Photographs of Fırat showing her with Murat Karayılan, the leader of the PKK, in a rural area, probably the Qandil Mountains, which is used by the terrorist group as its headquarters, had previously circulated in Turkish media outlets.
