Two more Turkish army generals linked to Friday’s military coup attempt were remanded in the Hakkari province on Saturday.

Lt. Gen. Halil Engin and Denizli Garrison Commander Maj. Gen. Kamil Ozbakir were remanded.

The coup attempt was suppressed by early Saturday, with Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim stating that all coup supporters were identified and would be apprehended as the country was returning to normal life. Over 180 people were killed and 1,470 were injured during the events, while nearly 3,000 people have already been detained, according to the prime minister.
