British authorities arrested six individuals in London on Wednesday as part of an ongoing counter-terrorism investigation targeting alleged connections to the PKK, the Kurdish militant group outlawed in the United Kingdom.
The operation resulted in the detention of four men and two women under provisions of the Terrorism Act of 2000. The PKK, which seeks Kurdish independence in southeastern Turkey, is classified as a banned extremist organization by British authorities.

The coordinated arrests demonstrate British authorities’ continued efforts to combat organizations designated as terrorist groups within the country’s borders.
