Soldiers entering the Taksim Square started to surround the Taksim Republic Monument. In a short while they started to shoot into the air to break up the citizens who were progressively increasing in number. Meanwhile, citizens of Konya took to the streets to oppose the coup attempt. The citizens who gathered in front of Konya Governorate crowded towards the airport with a vehicle convoy that included a large number of trucks as well. Citizens gathered at Konya Airport and in the vicinity of the 3rd Main Jet Base.
