Three suspects, including a foreign national, have been arrested in the capital Ankara for alleged links to the TKP/Kivilcim terror group, security sources said Friday.

The arrests came after the Ankara Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office issued warrants for eight suspects known to have links to the far-left terror group, said the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity due to restrictions on talking to the media.

One of the suspects is of Austrian origin, according to the sources.
