In response to media queries about an attempted military coup in Turkey, the MFA Spokesman said:
“MFA is concerned about developments in Turkey and is monitoring the situation closely. Until the situation becomes clearer, we advise Singaporeans to avoid non-essential travel to Turkey for the time being. Singaporeans who are in Turkey should stay indoors, monitor the news closely and e-register with MFA. They should let their family and friends know that they are safe. Those who require consular assistance should contact the Singapore Embassy in Ankara or the MFA Duty Office (24 hours) at:
