Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's spokesman and interior minister have both announced that they have tested positive for the coronavirus.
Presidential spokesman Ibrahim Kolin tweeted that he had reached “the final stage of coronavirus treatment” but did not say how long he has been sick. “I am going very well,” he wrote.
Kolin's comment came only hours after Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu said he was hospitalised on Friday with his wife and daughter, who also tested positive for the virus.
Both men routinely meet Erdogan, who was scheduled to travel to Izmir today.
