Is there any reasons provided by the pro-army coup as to why they're doing this? I haven't heard any reports on that yet - just fighting.
The coup needs support outside of themselves if they're attempting to be successful.

no that's what happens when you get hit by a high caliber bullet.

Holy shit people's torso's ripped with blood and stuff spilling out. It's not nice to see, as the camera is quite good too. Damn it!
And it's 1:41am too about to get some sleep.

thats honestly heartbreaking. rip to the poor civilians
Basically pro-coup saying that they are in complete control of the state.

CNN Turk just shut down. I'm getting the feeling the coup has control of a good portion outside of Istanbul since information is silent from the rest of the country.

There is no reason why the US would want a coup right now.
He has done a lot for the economy of turkey, improving infrastructure with building important bridges and airports, his 2023 plans and stuff and also some political things to roughly name a few things.
But that does not belong in this thread i think.
Now people will call me out for being an erdogan fan, im just answering reckheims question.
Please be true. Erdrogan is a cancer.
It's basically the same thing as the image in the OP. Which should answer the question this poster has:
Jets are flying low over Taksim, police is shooting at them
Hmm, upon closer inspection yep, that's some heavy rounds damage right there.

Someone slap me, I swear I thought Istanbul was the capital of Turkey but it's actually Ankara.

It showed police firing small arms at a low flying jet a few mins ago, every few mins another jet (or the same Jet) passes.

Does that mean the leaders of the putsch have control of military HQ? If they've seized control of the website that would suggest that.

Don't see what NATO has anything to do with this?
Especially if most if not all NATO countries have already announced they support against the coup.

It's either you shoot them or surronder. Unless you're willing to shoot your own people you don't really have another choice.

Well, Erdogan is supporting ISIS and won't move against them (even after them suicide bombing his country MULTIPLE times, supplies moved from Turkish border posts to ISIS controlled border posts a mere 10 meters away), so I doubt things will change much unless the Turkish tanks at the Syrian border get pulled back.

Jesus fucking Christ. This needs to end soon. I can't believe this is happening in Turkey of all places. Fuck Erdogan, but someone needs to take control soon and stop this mindless shit.
I'm surprised that the army suddenly open fire like that, so far they only attacked tactic points. But shoot civils like that ? That's odd.
I wonder what changed...
Anyway #prayforturkey

That Brit in Taksim should get out.
edit: Ok he turned off his stream.
If the military ground forces pulled out of Istanbul, you do NOT want to stay in any public place.

This seems to be quickly moving from a coup to a war. That's, uh, bad
