Firstclass Newsline gathered that the turkish internal security
officers pass a Turkish soldier on July 15, 2016 in Istanbul, during a
security shutdown of the Bosphorus Bridge. Turkish security forces on
July 15 partially shut down the two bridges across the Bosphorus
Strait in Istanbul as military jets were heard flying low over Ankara,
reports and AFP correspondents said. The Bosphorus and Fatih bridges
were closed by the gendarmerie -- a branch of the Turkish military
dedicated to internal security -- for traffic travelling from Asia to
Europe, NTV television said. Traffic was still moving in the other
direction. Meanwhile, Turkish military aircraft were heard flying low
over Ankara, AFP correspondents in the capital reported. There was no
