In a significant security operation, Turkish authorities detained 209 individuals in Ankara ahead of the NATO summit scheduled for July 7-8. This operation underscores Turkey's ongoing concerns regarding national security and its efforts to maintain order before the high-profile gathering of NATO leaders, including U.S. President Donald Trump.
