welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm max foster in nice, france. >> i'm becky anderson in paris. this is "cnn newsroom." turkish president ird.want says a cleric living in exile in the u.s. orchestrated the recent coup attempt. erdogan is demanding that the u.s. arrest or extradite gulen and crowds gathered outside gulen's home in pennsylvania to

echo that sentiment. but gulen says he wasn't involved with the uprise at all. whoever was involved left a major rift with 200 people dead and almost 3,000 military officers detained for their involvement. cnn's ian lee joining us now from istanbul with more. and certainly we are seeing a crashdown as far as those that erdogan believes were responsible for this coup. what will happen to them next? >> becky, what we've been hearing, what that exactly means. we don't know. but it is still very much recent events. it's been 36 hours since the coup took place. >> a bloody 24 hours of this

turkey. the military declared it had taken control of the country and imposed martial law. >> president erdogan appealed to his supporters on face time to take to the streets ask fight for democracy. >> it's wearing off against tanks and armored vehicles. turkish forces loyal to erdogan rushed the coup, but not before isolated heavy fighting. gunshots reported at the presidential complex if in ankara, and helicopters reportedly opened fire at the national intelligence headquarters. the coup's soldiers eventually abandon their weapons and paused. >> the risk -- >> jt right now, there's no place that is not under our control. at this point and at this time, there are no risk spots. there are no places that are not under our control. so, yes, the coup is blocked.

>> retribution has begun. at least 2800 soldiers of various ranks have been arrested and 2700 members of the judiciary removed. the prime minister vowing they will pay a heavy price. now, public enemy number one, this man, mr. goulen in exile in the united states. erdogan accuses him of being the puppet master of the overthrow. >> i call on the united states and president barack obama. dear mr. the president, i told you this before. either arrest gulen or return him to turkey. >> gulen denies responsibility claiming anyone could have been mind it the the..and in a rare show of unity in a kin where politics can be divisive and deadly, turkey's various political parties united to denounce the coup. that unity not likely to last.

opposition figures worry the coup gave erdogan a gift, an excuse to galvanize on supporters support and cracking down. >> they are worried about these dissident politicians, worried about a purge, a settling of scores, if you will. annoy they believe that erdogan can basically do what he wants in the name of the -- of providing security in that and after the coup. and erdogan has had a long history of going after journalists, aid workers and dissident publish yaps, cracking down on those who oppose them. they fear this had is going to em bolden him even more. >> ian lee is in istanbul for you just after 10:00 in the morning there. let's move on and get you more on this failed coup attempt in

turkey. thank you, sir, for joining us. gulen denies any involvement in the attempted overthrow and he actually accuses the president himself of possibly orchestrating this coup. how much support should we expect turkey to be offered by others in the interpret community, given the questions that exist over exactly what happened? >> well, gulen himself is head of a movement. it's called a secret movement. it's not so secret. it has its own diplomatic representation in the area. he's a split. sars the international community is concerned, the first

statements were the open ones, calling for calm and for revant. but the truth is, that turkey is just strategically too important for the international community to ignore. it's still a nighttime member despite the fact that we've seen a huge split here within the military. and as far as the european union is concerned, because of the refugee try crisis. it's a key in dealing with syria and its after did his math. i know there will be deep concerns about the state of democracy. but our engagement must be one that buttresses democracy and does not allow or enable erdogan in which democracy could be -- >> well, let's talk about democracy on the president erdogan. there those would say that

turkey was already undergoing, and i quote, a slow motion coup. this, the line from one journalist writing a british newspaper today. but this slow motion coup wasn't by the army, but it was by erdogan himself who has been method ekly moving to take over the nodes of power your response to those criticisms? >> i think we need to take them very seriously, indeed, and not to -- with the obvious reaction of the -- to be against military codes, not to underthe seriousness of the of the one of the newspapers that was closed down of many was because there was evidence that the turkey was supplying arms to isis, evidence that erdogan has moved

ruthlessly to suppress. i was, myself, in the southeast of the country just a few weeks ago where there is, essentially, a state of siege against the kurdish communities. a bloody crackdown which erdogan has skillfully used the events in syria and iraq to avoid any -- attention towards. >> i hear your message. let's just consider u.s.-turk relations for a moment. it is not clear at this point whether washington will be prepared to extradite gullen, unlikely, one would seem. how difficult is it to -- if it happened, very serious, but i don't anticipate that the states will want to do that.

the first is the evidence against gulen. i know saurts or sympathy to him was movement, but none of us have seen any evidence. similarly, 3,000 soldiers, what's the evidence against them if the independent jumgs, we've seen a u.n. security council resolution yedz blocked by egypt because of the -- that concerns abouter do waeps. and i think it turns as the europe evens were in position. and one of the things i would be calling for is to make sure that

those negotiationing chapters are open, that democrats is very fragile in turkey. . if a coup attempt after the last one since 1997, there could there would never about the another coup. that has been proven to be wrong over the course of the weekend. we should talk to turkey, not at them. >> richard howard out of europe for you today. thank you, sir. more on turkey. the significance of this attempted overthrow and its consequences, a little late in this hour. first, market who is in nice for you. >> becky, a country in mourning, a country in grief, church surfaces here in nice are obviously honoring the vikt a

lot of questions, as well, about security and how france moves forward. this is the face of the man who brought terror to the streets of nice who french authorities say was not known to have any links to terrorism. >> translator: it seems that he became radicalized very quickly. >> isis has claimed the 31-year-old was one of their soldiers who heeded their call. the question still remains whether he received a direct order from the terror group or was simply inspired by their ideology. investigators are looking to answer that. they're digging deep into his life. some neighbors in his apartment building describe him as a bit of a loaner, quiet and is even odd. >> he he never spoke. he didn't speak to anyone.

he was always alone with his -- >> this is the artery. if you look through the keyhole, you can see the place has been thoroughly searching, colored doors open. from the outside, his life looked almost ordinary. french media describe him as a man who loves body building. but those close to him pain the picture of a disturbed advise. >> he would become angry, he would shout and he would -- with authorities coming face-to-face two years ago. >> he was charged with an adult.

slowly, a picture is emerging of mohamed. nice, france. certainly whatever the connection was with isis, becky, they're claiming it now and that is how the investigation is moving forward, as well. >> all right, max, thank you. that's more from the south of france later. meantime, the u.s. state of pennsylvania has become a surprisingly focal point in the aftermath of the fagd coup in tu turkey. we'll tell you why. an islamic cleric is leading to the upriding.

with

. erdogan is demanding that gulen be arrested or extradited back to turkey. people protested outside gulen's pennsylvania home on saturday. but he says he had nothing to do with the uprising. >> translator: we have always

done -- any or keep it. but it's the source of that break-up is rooted in turkey, then not much we can do. democracy cannot be achieved through military coups and people should not be -- to any coups. well, the turkish government has closed the military bait for now. the u.s. flies misses out of ankara. the chose your is only to make sure opposition troops no longer control any aircraft. the u.s. says turkey has not pulled back from the fight against extremists. >> as of this moment, turkey's cooperation with us in our counterterrorism efforts, in our nato open investigations and in our regional efforts where else to syria and have not been affected as of late.

al of that has continues add before. president erdogan emerging victorious from this cow, but his nemesis accused him of orchestrating the whole thing. let's consider whether there is any evidence to support his accusations. is there any evidence? >> well, let's make it clear. there's no evidence one way or another. neither to support the accusations made by erdogan that gulen is behind this coup. they've provided no evidence and there's no evidence to support counterclaim that this was staged. we're probably never going to see any evidence either way. in short material, i think the president erdogan does stand to benefit. here is somebody who has been known to manipulate situations, crackdown on the opposition and engineer situations to benefit his political ambitions. there are many, who say, for

instance, that he restarted and rekindled his conflict a year ago solely for the purpose of galvanizing his support base and winning snap elections that he called. >> i was interested to read one of our regular commentators until the guardian newspaper today, andrew finkel wrote that turkey was already undergoing slow motion coup by erdogan and not by the army for the last three years finked says the turkish president has been methodically moving to take over the nodes of power. is he right? >> it's an interesting take on politics, certainly. and call it what you will. a slow moving coup or a power grab, yes, that's what's been happening in turkey. clarchlg down on the opposition. there are no longer any media opposition in the country. by the way, the very social media the president used to call for supporters to take to the

streets. snap elections called in a complex that will be favorable to erdogan. all of this with one ambition which is now that the former prime minister erdogan has become president, he wants to turn turkey from a parliamentary system into a strong presidential system. >> washington and europe core graph their relations with turkey going forward will be critical, host to these 1500 troops and of course the european story dominate by migrants who oftentimes are coming through turkey and flooding, as some would say, europe's shores. how do things shape you? >> turkey has leverage over both the eu and u.s. and turkey has shown it's willing to use its leverage. the leverage over europe comes from the throws of migrants.

with the u.s. now, you mentioned earlier that there are u.s. troops and planes and war planes stayinged at the air base and that's a key staging post for the u.s.'s operations in iraq and syria. again, whether turkey maintains that access to that base for the u.s., that's where the leverage lies for ankara over washington. >> interesting times as ever, thank you. back to max in nice. >> becky, france mourning the victims of a horrendous attack here on thursday night. 10 children were amongst the 84 people killed after trucks plowed through the crowd on thursday. the french government is doing what they can to help and the hospitals are doing what they can, as well, to support everyone involved. and the real tragedy here is not just those who have died, but those who survived and several of them are intensive cave.

the spokesperson, stephanie simpson, joins me now. just give us some facts and figures because tells what you're dealing with in terms of numbers. >> right now, out of the 30 children and teenagers that were admitted on the very night, two passed away during the night and right now we still have five in intensive care. one little boy was unidentified yesterday, but but found out about his identity. his grandmother came and identified had him. he's romanian. and he's still under artificial respiration. >> the boy's parents, they were caught up. the reason the grandmother came over is the parents died?

>> parents are still unfound. >> but all the children you're dealing with, they're all lost a parent, right? >> at least sib is lynx or family member. but fortunately, all the kids we have still have at least one family member with them. so none of them are alone in the bedrooms or in their intensive care. so that is a confirming fact. but most families have been dismantled. so that's the real tragedy about this attack is some families have lost several members. in terms of injuries, fortunately we didn't have in many any amputation. so it's mainly medical broken bones and trauma. >> so are you hopeful the children in intensive care can get through this or -- >> yes. i spoke to the main doctor this morning who is dealing with those kids and the situation the

125ib8. and they are no longer in position to enter. >> one of the other features of these young children is they're all very young. most of them are under 5? >> yes. that's a very sad fact, too. i counted yesterday. 36% of the 30 didz kids were under 5. >> in terms of -- you talk about trauma. of course, the ongoing, that's going to be the real issue here. i poke to the minister responsible for victims yesterday. >> we opened the psychological unit on thursday night. up until now, we received 150 people, siblings, parents, relatives or people that lost a friend. so this cell is open until midnight until today again so it's really open to anybody that really needs. and the parents were kind of stunned the first 24 hours.

and it's really now that the psychiatric lomgal impact is hitting. and the greatest impact of this attack is really like logical. >> and the way to deal with that, as i understand it from the minister, is just to discuss very clearly what happened and not to deny that anything happened. what they saw was real and it was a terrorist to attack them. that is the best way of dealing with children, right? >> it's -- i think the first attack with so many children wounded and it's a black dot in hor. this hospital has been existing for if this is the first time something of that scale hab. so i can we need to speak to the xhin tesh and said look, this

cannot happen again? what was it like on the aen when you thaerd this news? >> we had over 60 staff that were called back and became. everybody came after surgeons, nurses, so we have plenty of doctors to take out the children. >> thank you very much for bring withing us that information. we wish well in your work. we're very much with you. so thank you so much for speaking to us. it doesn't get any because the more we process been. people work extremely hard to lessen the siej localal impact of what happened in nice. in turkey, matt max, sold issiers turning their attention to a cn affiliate during friday's coup attempts. details are coming up. do stay with us.

. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm max foft ner nice, france. >> and i'm becky anderson in paris for you. it is 9:30 in the morning here. chaos gave away to celebrations after the failed coup in turkey. government supporters marched through ankara, more than 2800 military personnel have been detained in the crackdown and nearly 3,000 judges have been suspended. travelers stuck at the airport are now able to move on.

the airport has resumed normal operation webs but the u.s. and uk both warn their citizens to take precautions when traveling in turkey. that coup attempt on friday came with some intense moments for our affiliate cnn turkey in istanbul. soldiers took over their tv studios after the channel used face time to broadcast a message from the turkish president. >> as chaos unfolded across turkey, under occupation, an anchor for state broadcaster trt reads a message from those attempting a coup. it declared martial law and a curfew, a curfew that will eventually fail after an appearance by the country's embattled president on cnn in turk. in an unusual bit of technology,

president erdogan used face time. go to the streets and give them their answer, he urges. i am coming to a square in ankara. thousands of people took to the streets in solidarity with erdogan. chanting god is great, they stood up against the military and held the streets across the country. and all throughout, cnn and turk stayed on air. but just as the soldiers occupying trt were expelled, cnn turk would be sigh lended by the coup attempt. in a dramatic turn, a calm and visibly shaken cnn turk reporter says i think you can hear me.. a helicopter has landed on our building and soldiers entered our studios with force. finally, we are now in the

control room. we tried our best, she says. and the studio cuts to a camera showing the last remaining employees clearing out. the signal of the remaining studio would be up for roughly 40 minutes with muffled voices heard off camera. finally, commotion outside the studio. cnn turk managers enter the studio. the camera position changes and cnn turk returns to air. cnn atlanta. >> let's bring in melissa bell. she is an international affairs editor with france 24 joining us by skype from burgundy and france. melissa, in some quarters, turkey's president will use this attempted overthrow as pretext for a further crackdown on his opponent. what would the sort of questions be on that thing, do you think?

>> even more affecting turkey. and, of course, everything leads us to believe that this is going to be the case. there's been a pattern with erdogan's behavior over the last few years. he's about become ever changing. he was haileds as a fairley pragmatic leader. he took on a number of key taboos in turkish society. the kurdish question, the armenian question, he had all the rhetoric of a secular prime minister which is what he was at the time, someone who was going to stand by to keep these -- and all the -- he proved his determination for a greater

control on power. with appear ever more divisive leadership style. and in that search, he seemed to stop at nothing, thriving on discord ask disunity. back in june last year, it had been his plan to further his ambition of a start of power. that cut short to it. he then recalled elections back in november in which he regained that parliamentary majority, gaining 3 million votes over the course of those few months. what happened in between june and november? the end of the truce with the pkk, the kurdish separatists and the bombings that left 103 civilians dead. e6r789 there's been a tract of stability in turkey,s has successfully used it to regain

his foot on power. and this begs the question. how do capitals around the world deal with hem, not the least washington? gulen denies any participation in the overthrow. washington certainly showing no signs of conceding to erdogan's demands. what are the -- what's the impact on u.s.-particularly over the question of all of syria. and this one is one that we've been talking about a great deal these last few years. within the justice system, within the police, as particular

hi throughout the justice system. his support knot zrlly to have come from the army. to go awe to the man he's opinion trying 4067bd b police try and get rid of hell the. hits supporters and the government are looking at this increasingly bitter battle. the army now divided between those two support erdogan and those who have been worried about his attempts historically

of trying to we think and with all of those kwis. >> thank you for this. >> fascinating. all right, melissa, thank you for that. melissa on the turkey story sd, take a look at the impacts ov overpass. for the team being -- let me send you back to colligir still -- well, nearly 40 people involved in the attacks. the promenade, meanwhile, has

opened after that deadly attack. visitors reminded all the way athat that prom in addition.

we've got some breaking news in the terror investigation in nice. a spokes woman tells cnn there have been two new arrests in the attack of a man and a woman in that arrest. isis is claiming the man who carried out the deadly terror attack was one of the terror group soldiers. muh a muhamed france now observe

three days of morning. >>. >> translator: it could have been me. it could have been my daughter who is 21. that evening, she didn't go out. she told me, i don't fancy going out. she was meant to be there. she didn't go out. these people destroyed these families. what life will they have tomorrow? ite like parisparis, it's like "charlie hebdo," it's like the jewish program. >> the site of the attack is reopened, but the visitors to the promenade originally reminded of the carnage. will richly has been up and down the promenade. it does suggest there are a network. >> it's still too soon to know for sure who these peemp are.

keep in mind, in france, people don't have to -- when you tell arrests, that can be taken in custody, but we now no this would have has been taking it. now, learning from the anti-terrorism prosecutor's office, another man and another woman. so two women, six men and what is their connection? is it friends, team members, or people who were radicalized. they're looking into a potential phone link between one attackers and is now in sooer ya. to have any appearses about what

theation went to but want he went jail for getting into a fight. and the aftermath of this horrible act is being feld on the promenade des anglais. the french riviera, a place of undoubleble beauty and un-tri blg tragedy. for the first time since the attack in nice, the beach is back open. so is the iconic promenade des an lay. a lot of people are closer down here. so the children being killed, i feel for those and the thousands of people that are related. jeff done van from his belong, a young boy day.the. >> that one was shouting, that one was kroois crying, she says.

it was a catastrophe to see death in front of you. it was hard. really, ready hard. here, heartbreaking reminders of young lives lost. one note reads 20 hit here. many children. another, our thoughts are with you little princess. of the 48 who with died, more than a dozen remained un. >> he lives in these. he's haunted by the children he saw, running, crying, calling for their parents who didn't make it. >> it's -- it's quite difficult for me to sleep, you know, because with i'm hearing the voices, i'm seeing the faces and remembering the faces of this. >> is his sterp in paris called co-tom on him.

his enter survived, three of her friends died. >> i think nobody can feel safe. we are experienced, we are changing our mind, we are changing our way to leave. >> things appear back to normal here, but life will never be the same. to some people, the fact that the promenade reopened so quickly might be unsettling, but this local headline car temperature temperatures the people are determined to continue to live. >> there is also a sense of resignation b, as well, isn't there? >> france is clearly a desirable target for a lot of the reasons we talked about. easy access in and out and the values here, the french valued are westernized. >> there's always something going on in the world.

but certainly we're learning more about what happened on thursday nicght. the race for u.s. president donald trump picks mike b issue. why the indiana governor is getting up or getting on the trump train as "cnn newsroom" continues.

security concerns are rising. that city has banned at least 72

kinds of weapons at the event surrounding the conon vengz. guns, however, are not on that list because ohio is an open carry state. arena itself has a ban on weapons of think kind. be sure, of course, to stay tuned to cnn special coverage of the republican national convention. it all begins on monday. christian amanpour, kate baldwin and hala garani will be live. only here on cnn. now, we move on to brazil and the summer olympics. less than three weeks away and anti-terrorism training exercises are also under way for police and troops. shasta has more on how officials are reviewing their own security plan after the terror attack in thighs. >> this is a drill in progress. the biggest exercise to date

bringing all branches of security forces together for the first time ahead of the rio 2016 summer games. in a simulation, hostages and casualties all in realtime. the anti-terrorism forces are now on the scene. they're going after the alleged terrorists. we're about an hour into this simulation. >> the plan before the attack on nice is having an impact. >> what are you doing differently? >> we are bringing more troops to rio de janeiro. the games will be safe. >> in fact, the attack on nice has prompted brazil to review its entire olympic security plan. the perimeters around venues will be widened. more checkpoints and traffic restrictions added. some 85,000 police, soldiers, traffic cops and firefighters will be concentrated right here in rio, more than double the security detail in london.

the events of nice have worried us and it's not surprising, he says. this concern will be translated into greater control, more security, more people and more measures. we'll be working with international intelligence agencies at command and control center in the heart of rio. anyone can take a truck and try to commit a crime like we saw, he says. but today in brazil, there are no suspicions that this threat will tapes. and while brazil says it's taking no chances, officials insist the country has no history of terrorism and no home grown networks to facilitate a terror attack. cnn, reeio de janeiro. >> thank you for watching this hour of "cnn newsroom." we will have more news next hour. my colleague max foster in nice and becky anderson live in paris following the aftermath of the terror attack in france. you're watching cnn, the world news leader.
