More than 100 people were arrested in raids across Turkey on Wednesday. Those arrested are suspected of links to ISIS, Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said.

"We have arrested 125 Daesh (IS) suspects in simultaneous operations carried out in 25 provinces this morning," writes Ali Yerlikaya.

The arrests come after 357 people were arrested on Tuesday, including those suspected of links to IS.

On Monday, three police officers were killed in a similar operation in the northwest of the country.
