Turkey’s government summoned U.S. Charge d’Affaires Jeffrey Hovenier after the U.S. embassy’s Twitter account “liked” a tweet telling the people of Turkey to prepare for the death of national party leader Devlet Bahceli.

Turkish journalist Ergun Babahan suggested in a tweet that Bahceli, who is reportedly ill, could die soon. Babahan is reportedly wanted in Turkey and is suspected of having ties to a cleric who is alleged to have been behind a failed coup in 2016, according to the Associated Press.
