Turkey arrests Syrian Nusra Front militants

ANKARA - Turkish authorities have arrested a group of Syria's al-Qaida-linked al-Nusra Front militants who allegedly had been planning an attack inside Turkey and were in possession of the nerve agent sarin, local media reported on Thursday.
While they could not be immediately confirmed, the reports highlight the growing concerns that Syria's civil war is dragging in neighboring states.
In the worst example of the spillover into Turkey, 52 people were killed when twin car bombs ripped through the border town of Reyhanli on May 11. Turkey has accused Syria of involvement in the attacks, but Damascus has denied any role.
