Turkey has sacked another 18,500 state workers, in the latest purge triggered by a failed coup two years ago.
Since the coup attempt the government has fired more than 125,000 people, introduced emergency rule and clamped down on the media and the opposition.
The move comes as President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is preparing to be sworn in with sweeping new powers on Monday.
He has promised to lift the state of emergency. Correspondents say the purge announced on Sunday could be the last before he does so.
