The sky is shining with a bloom

The Turkish authorities closed 16 television channels, 23 radio stations, 45 newspapers, 15 magazines, 29 publishing houses and three news agencies. It is reported by CNN Turk with reference to a decree published in the official publication.

The decree was issued in accordance with the law on the emergency introduced in the country after a failed attempt by a military coup.

On Monday, the Turkish prosecutor’s office issued a warrant for the detention of 42 journalists in connection with an attempt to a coup in the country. Operations are carried out on the search and detention of media employees suspected of relations with the opposition Islamic preacher Fethullah Gulen. Ankara accuses him of organizing an attempt of a military coup in Turkey.

Among others, an arrest warrant was issued to the famous television viewer Nazly Ylydzhak. She was the comrade -in -arms of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who turned into an opposition after accelerating the protest on Taxim Square in Istanbul in 2013.

On July 20, Erdogan introduced a state of emergency in the country for a period of three months. The next day, the Great National Assembly - the Turkish parliament - approved this decision in 346 votes against 115.

On the evening of July 23, Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yyldyrym on the air of the NTV television channel said that the number of detainees after the coup attempt is 13 thousand people. "The number of detainees after the military coup at the moment is 13002 people: these are 1329 police officers, 8831 soldiers, 2100 judges, 689 prosecutors," the prime minister said.

At the moment, within the framework of the mass purges of the state apparatus in Turkey, about 45 thousand civil servants of various structures have been removed from work.
