The Turkish navy has not been able to count 14  and 2 helicopters after the military coup attempt last Friday, media reports say.

The vessels were on duty in either the Aegean or the Black Seas before the coup. Suspicions are growing that the commanders of the ships could have been behind the coup plot.

In turn, Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus denies that any naval vessels are unaccounted for.

According to unconfirmed reports, Admiral Veysel Kosele, the commander of the Turkish Navy, has been out of contact since the coup night. Turkish authorities don’t know whether he was an instigator of the attempt to oust President Erdogan or is being held hostage.

The Coup Continues! Only needing people from around the globe to unite behind the Turkish defenders of secularism, against the Islamist PM who rules like a dictator and supplies ISIS fighters against Syria.

No. Only need people around the world to stop feeling the need to decide for other nations who they should have for leaders. Physician, heal thyself.
