Several million Turks gathered in Istanbul on Sunday in protest against last month’s coup attempt, according to police and organisers. The mass rally was called by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and is seen as a show of strength for the leader, who has been criticised by the West for a sweeping crackdown on dissent after the failed takeover.
