Police in Turkey arrested 11 suspected Daesh members in raids across the country on Monday, according to reports.

In simultaneous operations, eight were arrested in Bingol province, eastern Turkey, two in Balikesir on the west coast and another in southeastern Diyarbakir.

The raids were coordinated by police from Diyarbakir.

Daesh has been linked to several bomb attacks in Turkey since July, including the Ankara attack on Oct. 10 that killed 103.

Turkey has detained over 300 suspected Daesh members since the beginning of the year.
