Ms McKee, 29, was shot dead in the city in April 2019 as she observed rioting in the Creggan area.
The suspects have been taken to the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Serious Crime Suite at Musgrave police station in Belfast for interview.
Three men have already been charged with the murder of Ms McKee and another four have been charged with rioting and associated offences.
The extremist group that styles itself the New IRA has previously claimed it was responsible for killing the Belfast journalist and author.
