Turkish authorities arrest 2016 coup pilot
The Turkish Ministry of Interior announced the arrest of one of the suspects involved in the attempted assassination of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan during the failed coup attempt in 2016. The suspect, a former captain and helicopter pilot who has been dismissed, was associated with the Gülen Movement, which Turkey blames for planning the coup that resulted in the deaths of 253 people and injuries to 2,734 others. He was apprehended in Afyonkarahisar Province during a joint security operation, as Turkey continues its efforts to pursue Gülen Movement members and dismantle its networks both domestically and abroad.
