The Syrians are alleged to have supported the terrorist militia Islamic State (IS). The operation was carried out on behalf of the Federal Prosecutor's Office. The arrests took place in the cantons of Vaud and Neuchâtel, Switzerland, on Thursday. Four people, all of Syrian origin, were taken into custody on suspicion of supporting the terrorist militia Islamic State (IS). The operation was carried out on behalf of the Federal Prosecutor's Office. The arrests are part of a larger investigation into the activities of IS in Switzerland. The Federal Prosecutor's Office has not released any further details about the suspects or the investigation. The arrests come at a time when Switzerland is on high alert for terrorist activity.
