    reports the statements made by the Turkish Armed Forces were not made with the military command's consent. coup may be the work of rogue elements within the military and/or junior officers.

    Turkish Armed Forces statements now being broadcast on state TV meaning they've taken control of the broadcasting station(s). they cite Erdogan's autocratic rule and increased incidents of terrorism as their rationale.
