Turkey detained four foreign Daesh members in the southern Gaziantep province, the Turkish military said Sunday.
Turkish troops that were on routine patrol duty took into custody four foreigners in Gaziantep who were attempting to cross illegally into Syria from Turkey , the Turkish General Staff said in a statement on its official website.
The nationalities of the suspects have not been specified.
Turkey has been doing its part to identify and stop potential foreign fighters seeking to cross the border to Syria to join Daesh. As part of Turkey's efforts, police have tightened security at transfer points such as airports, terminals, bus stations and rental car companies.
The police have done so by employing a special risk analysis system and a team tasked with tracking suspicious foreigners who travel to Turkey for the first time and minors who have not made hotel reservations.
