Turkey discloses arrests with link to Paris

A Turkish security official says authorities have arrested more than half a dozen suspected Islamic State militants who had exchanged messages with the militants in Paris who conducted the deadly attacks across the city.

The security official says that the suspects included a man they believe is associated with Mohammed Emwazi, the Islamic State militant known as “Jihadi John.”

The official speaks on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak publicly on the investigation.
