On July 15, 2016, Turkey witnessed a coup attempt carried out by limited elements of the army affiliated with the “FETO” terrorist organization.
It was met with massive popular protests in most cities and states, forcing the putschists to withdraw their military vehicles from the cities and thwarting their plan.
