Turkey is arresting the sister of the dead leader Abu Bakr al Bakhgadi who died in the northern Syrian city of Azaz and questioning her detained husband and daughter-in-law, a Turkish senior official quoted Reuters and the Associated Press.
According to a high-ranking official in Turkey, Turkey arrested the sister of a murder leader of the Dash terrorist group in northwest Syria.
Little is known about the sisters of Abu Bakr al Baghdadi. Turkish officials said the 65-year-old, known as Rasmiya Awad, is suspected of being affiliated with this group. He was not sophisticated.
Farrettin Altun, Turkey's communications officer, said the operation was another example of Turkey's success in counterterrorism operations.
Regardless of ideology or origin, Turkey continues to fight terrorism.
Arrest of Sister Al-Bag Dadi is another example of our success in counterterrorism operations.

Awad raided on a trailer container living with his family near the village of Azaz in Aleppo on Monday evening. The area is part of Turkey-managed area since 2016, after military operations to drive out Daesh and YPG terrorists.
The Union Syrian Group manages an area known as the Euphrates Shield Zone.
The official said the sister was with her husband, daughter-in-law, and five children. He said adults are questioning anonymity in accordance with government protocols.
"This is an intelligent gold mine. What she knows (Daesh) can greatly broaden her understanding of the group and help catch bad people," the official said.
Al Baghdadi, an Iraqi from Samara, died last month from American air strikes in the nearby Idlib province. The attack hit a group that lost its territories in Syria and Iraq due to a series of military defeats by US-led coalitions, Syria and Iraqi allies.
Many members of the Dash escaped smuggling routes northwest of Syria on the last day of the battle prior to the group's defeat earlier this year and melted in other parts of Syria and Iraq.
Dictator Al Bah Hadi was known to be close to one of his brothers, known by his Abu Hamza.
Saudi aide Al Baghdadi died in a strike in the United States just hours after his raid in northwest Syria.
The group was nominated as Al Baghdad's successor a few days later, but little is known about the information about the group or how its structure was affected by consecutive blows.
