The world was shocked Friday when the Turkish military attempted a coup against the government. Newly acquired Orlando Magic forward Serge Ibaka has been vacationing in Turkey, but tweeted that he was safe during the violence:

Ibaka is staying in Antalya along the Mediterranean coast. Most of the fighting occurred in Ankara and Istanbul, which is hundreds of miles away from the former Oklahoma City Thunder player's location.

Hopefully he stays safe and the violence in the region in minimized.
