Turkish authorities Tuesday issued arrest warrants for 304 people over their alleged links to the Fetullah Terrorist Organization (FETO), the group behind the 2016 defeated coup.
295 ON-DUTY PERSONNEL
Prosecutors in the western Izmir province issued warrants for the suspects, including 295 on-duty personnel of the Turkish Land Forces and Air Forces Command.
FETO and its US-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the defeated coup of July 15, 2016, which left 251 people martyred and nearly 2,200 injured.
Ankara also accuses FETO of being behind a long-running campaign to overthrow the state through the infiltration of Turkish institutions, particularly the military, police and judiciary.
