ANKARA, Turkey - Defense Minister Fikri Isik says state authorities are in full control of all areas in Turkey following the coup attempt.

 

Isik said Saturday that Turkey can confidently say it has thwarted the coup attempt but warns that authorities have to remain vigilant.

 

Isik said that "at any time there could be new tests, new attempts. We have prevented the coup, but it is too soon to say that the danger is over."
