Georgia shuts down border with Turkey
Georgia has shut its border with Turkey amid the instability from a military coup attempt, AP reports.
Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili said the country’s security council on Saturday discussed “threats that might arise to Georgia” from the situation and said both land and air borders had been closed.

The former Soviet republic shares a 252-kilometer (152-mile) border with Turkey.
