The Turkish intelligence agency (MIT) has arrested 15 men accused of spying for Israel's foreign intelligence agency (Mossad) in Turkey, including Palestinians who had been missing in Turkey since September, Middle East Eye can reveal.
On Thursday, the Sabah newspaper first reported that MIT had rounded up 15 men who were allegedly organised into three-person cells across the country.
Two people who are familiar with the arrests confirmed to MEE that the men have been arrested on charges of "espionage and working for Mossad to gather information on Palestinian citizens living in Turkey". The sources added that there were Palestinians and Syrians among those arrested, and that they were tasked with "collecting information on Turkish officials and Palestinian students inside Turkey."
MEE understands that six Palestinians who have been reported missing in Turkey since last month are among those arrested....
