Turkish police arrested a Russian IS suspect working at the Akkuyu nuclear facility in Mersin.

Turkish police arrested an Islamic State suspect, a Russian national, working under a false identity at the Akkuyu nuclear facility. The facility is a $20 billion project being constructed in Turkey's Mediterranean province of Mersin by Russian state-owned energy giant Rosatom. The suspect will face a court hearing before being jailed pending trial. This follows recent IS attacks, including a fatal shooting at a Catholic church in Istanbul.
