Turkey: 30 killed, 94 injured as bomb blast hits wedding ceremony
With Agency reports
A wedding party ended in horror after a bomb went off killing at least 30 people and wounding 94 others on Saturday.
The attack occurred in the Turkish city of Gaziantep near the country’s border with Syria.
Describing it as barbaric, Deputy Prime Minister Mehmet Simsek said it appeared to be a suicide bombing.
President Tayyip Erdogan said it was likely that Islamic State militants had carried out the late-night attack, one of the deadliest this year in Turkey, which faces threats from militants at home and across the border with neighboring Syria.
“The celebrations were coming to an end and there was a big explosion among people dancing,” said 25-year-old Veli Can.
“There was blood and body parts everywhere.”
It is not clear yet who is behind the attack..
