ISTANBUL: Two Turkish journalists were arrested Saturday for filming near a sensitive airbase in southern Turkey that hosts US troops in live footage taken for Anka news agency, the Turkish outlet said. &quot;Two journalists were detained... as part of an investigation launched by the Adana chief public prosecutor&rsquo;s office regarding ANKA News Agency&rsquo;s broadcast from the vicinity of Incirlik air base,&quot; it said. The arrests came following Israeli and US strikes on Iran, which retaliated with missile barrages against Gulf states hosting US bases and against Israel.
