Turkey coup attempt: State of emergency announced

Turkey's president has declared a state of emergency for three months following Friday night's failed coup.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan said citizens should not have "the slightest concern with regards to democracy, rule of law, fundamental rights and freedoms".

The state of emergency would protect those values from attacks against them, he said, in a speech in Ankara.
The president praised those who were killed fighting against the coup as "martyrs".
The nation would "never forget the bravery and sacrifice of those who lost their lives", he said, describing "epics of heroic bravery throughout the night".
Mr Erdogan said foreign nations should stay out of Turkish affairs, adding: "This nation has the right to determine our own destiny."
The president was speaking after holding meetings of Turkey's national security council and the cabinet in the capital.
Earlier, Mr Erdogan warned of further arrests and suspensions to come as Turkish authorities continued to pursue those they believed responsible for the thwarted putsch - the supporters of the US-based Turkish cleric Fethullah Gulen.
