# British Journalists Detained In Southeastern Turkey
\- In Turkey’s southeastern province of Diyarbakır, two reporters from the British VICE News international news organisation were detained by the Police Department Directorate of Anti-terror Branch officers, along with their translators.
VICE News journalists Jake Hanrahan and Philip Pendlebury having been deployed to the province for reporting the developments in the region were detained by the police along with their interpreters. The anti-terror brach teams have not made and statement on the reason for detainment yet.
VICE News describes itself as, "is an international news organization created by and for a connected generation. We provide an unvarnished look at some of the most important events of our time, highlight under-reported stories from around the globe, and get to the heart of the matter with reporters who call it like they see it."
