Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has denounced a coup attempt as an "act of treason" and insisted his government remains in charge. A faction of the armed forces is accused of trying to seize power, after a night of gunfire and explosions in Ankara and Istanbul.
Officials say the coup attempt is over, although the situation is still confused. At least 90 people are dead and more than 1,000 wounded.
