Turkey marks ten years since the failed 2016 coup attempt.
On July 15, 2016, a faction of the Turkish military attempted to overthrow President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's government. The coup failed within hours, leaving over 250 dead and thousands wounded. The government blamed the Gulen movement for the attempt and responded with extensive purges, arrests, and institutional reforms that reshaped civil-military relations.
