Turkish gendarmerie units detained 91 suspects during operations across 30 provinces over the past two weeks, targeting a network behind a failed coup attempt in 2016, Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya said Friday.

Of those taken into custody, 64 have been formally arrested, while judicial control measures were applied to three others, Yerlikaya said on social media platform X, adding that legal proceedings for the remaining suspects are still ongoing.

The operations targeted the Gulen movement, which the Turkish government holds responsible for the July 15, 2016 coup attempt.

Investigations revealed that the suspects had been actively involved in the group's current structure, maintained communication with senior figures via payphones, provided financial support, and engaged in online propaganda.

The raids were carried out in 30 provinces, including Ankara, Bursa, Gaziantep, Istanbul, Izmir, and Konya, among others.

The Gulen movement, led by Turkish preacher Fethullah Gulen, who died in the United States in 2024, has been accused by the Turkish government of masterminding the coup attempt, which claimed over 250 lives and left thousands of others injured.

Authorities say operations targeting the network continue as part of a sustained effort to dismantle its structures.
