There are bad weekends, and then there’s the weekend Turkey just had.

In case you missed it, a faction within the nation’s military attempted to overthrow the government and its current president this past Friday and Saturday. Fortunately, the push was thwarted, and order is in the process of being restored in the European/Asian country (although it’s anything but smooth, with plenty of gnarly flotsam and jetsam in the coup’s wake). According to The New York Times, about 9,000 police officers have been fired by the Turkish government and more than 6,000 military members and over 100 high-ranking officers (admirals, generals) have been arrested in the domestic incident that left about 300 people dead.

Despite the mess, one thing has gone back to normal: the status of the airspace surrounding INcirlik Air Base, the United States military installation in the country. With this, airstrikes meant to squash ISIS and their inroads in both Syria and Iraq have restarted as well.

This from the Army Times:

An MQ-1 Predator was the first aircraft to take off from Incirlik after the airspace was reopened, followed by a KC-135 tanker, said Lt. Col. Christopher Karns, a spokesman for U.S. Air Forces Central Command.

The Turkish government closed the airspace around the base during the coup attempt, which forced U.S. Central Command to adjust its flight operations against ISIS.

“We’re making appropriate adjustments to ensure impact to air operations are minimized,” Lt. Col. Chris Karns, spokesman for U.S. Air Forces Central Command, told Military Times on Saturday.

The U.S. has manned and unmanned aircraft at Incirlik, which is about 100 miles from the border with Syria, but operations were halted there after Saturday’s attempted coup by elements of the Turkish military.

It’s not like the base was cut off from the madness that engulfed Turkey over the weekend, however. The Turkish commander tasked with overseeing the military facility — along with 11 of his personnel — were taken away in cuffs and currently stand as suspects/accomplices in the foiled coup attempt.
