Broadcaster TRT Haber reported that police carried out a raid at a home in Yalova province’s Elmalik village, located south of Istanbul, when fire was exchanged on Sunday.
The officers were not seriously injured, the broadcaster reported. It was not immediately clear whether any suspects were wounded or arrested.
Special forces from nearby Bursa province joined the operation to provide support, including enacting ongoing security measures in the area.
Locals and vehicles were not allowed into the area surrounding the targeted home, the broadcaster said, while the Yalova governorate also suspended classes at five nearby schools.
On Thursday, Turkish authorities said they had conducted raids on 124 locations and apprehended 115 ISIL suspects.
