This is a developing story: Military jets and helicopters seen flying low over Ankara and tanks reported in the streets, as two major bridges in Istanbul are closed to traffic.
Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said a military coup attempt is currently underway and that military action has been taken without a chain of command, according to local media NTV.
Yildirim reportedly said that the actions are only being taken by part of the military, adding that security forces are doing what is necessary to resolve the situation.
NTV also showed footage at tanks at the entrance of Istanbul’s Ataturk airport.
Erdogan is a powerhungry fool who keeps making mistakes after mistakes.
Reminds me of Sadam.
At the height of his power; he stepped on way too many toes especially at home.
The same sore toes conspired for his downfall.
Erdogan might oppress his people; but for how long?
