Turkish border guards on Friday nabbed an Uzbek-origin terrorist who was trying to enter the country through its southern border, according to Turkey's National Defense Ministry.
The Daesh/ISIS suspect, sought with a red notice and identified only by the initials A.R.S., tried to enter the country from the south-central Kilis province by illegal means, said the ministry in a statement.
The suspect was taken to the Kilis chief prosecutor's office.
Turkey was one of the first countries to declare Daesh/ISIS as a terror group in 2013.
The country has since been attacked by Daesh/ISIS terrorists multiple times. The terror group has carried out at least 10 suicide bombings, seven bomb attacks, and four armed attacks, killing 315 people and injuring hundreds more.
In response, Turkey launched anti-terror operations at home and abroad to prevent further attacks.
