Turkish authorities announced the dismantling of an international investment fraud network, suspected of stealing over $3 billion from victims across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Reports from Turkish media on Saturday indicated that 201 individuals were arrested in connection with the scheme, including nine Israeli citizens. Turkish prosecutors allege that Israelis were at the helm of the operation.
The alleged fraud involved enticing victims to invest in purported foreign exchange and cryptocurrency platforms, with the funds then being stolen. Raids were conducted in Istanbul and the Muğla province, coordinated by Turkish intelligence and Interpol.
The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed it is handling the incident and working to ensure the rights of the arrested Israeli citizens are protected. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan commented on the arrests, stating, "We know which elements, especially the Zionist massacre network, are disturbed by the 'Turkey without terror' process. With God's help, we will not give them the opportunity they hope for."
