History
The group was never as active as other Islamic State factions. All previous Islamic State attacks in Turkey were committed by the Dokumacılar, an unofficial cell of the Islamic State – Kurdistan Province.
On April 16, 2025, Turkish authorities arrested 89 individuals suspected of being affiliated with the Islamic State during coordinated security operations in 17 provinces, including Istanbul, Antalya, Gaziantep, Hatay and Van.
On 30 December 2025, in Yalova Province, a police crackdown on an ISIS cell ended up in an ambush by militants. After 9 hours of siege and clashes three police officers and six militants were killed.
