Two Turkish military attaches working in Greece have fled the country for Italy after the failed military coup attempt, Turkey's foreign minister said Thursday, while reports said a naval officer based in the U.S. has also gone missing. "We are in contact so that the two traitors may be brought back to Turkey," Cavusoglu said. Turkey has blamed the July 15 coup attempt on officers loyal to a U.S.-based Muslim cleric who it says have infiltrated the military. Gulen has denied any knowledge or involvement in the coup that left more than 270 dead but Turkey wants him extradited to face trial. Turkey has also asked Athens to return eight suspected coup-plotters who fled Turkey in a helicopter, just after the coup was quashed.
