One of the suspects, an accused explosives expert from Tajikistan, was arrested, and a deportation procedure was initiated against the Uzbek citizen.

The alleged militants got instructions from IS in Afghanistan and planned a "bloody" terrorist strike using explosives, as per the report.

Turkey has lately experienced numerous terror attacks. On December 16, eight Turkish police officers were injured after a bomb went off in a roadside vehicle while their minibus was traveling on a highway in the province of Diyarbakir in the country's southeast.

Last November, a strong explosion was heard in a busy area in the heart of Istanbul. At the time, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced that the explosion in Istanbul left six people dead and 53 injured.
