In the latest sign of a rift with the government, Turkey's top military leadership has stepped down.
Armed Forces Chief, General Isik Kosaner, has reportedly said he is quitting in protest at officers being jailed in various court cases. The commanders of the ground, naval and air forces are also going.
Dozens of serving or retired senior military figures have been detained amid investigations into alleged plots to overthrow the government.
