Ankara explosion: 30 dead at rally in Turkish capital
2015-10-10
[BBC] Two explosions at a peace rally in the Turkish capital Ankara have killed at least 30 people and injured 126, the interior ministry says.

TV footage shows scenes of panic and people lying on the ground covered in blood, amid protest banners.

The blasts took place near the city's central train station as people gathered for a march organised by leftist groups.

Government officials say the blasts were a terrorist attack, and are investigating reports that a suicide bomber was behind at least one of the explosions.

#7  death toll rising 97 killed (sky news australia)
media reports Turkish authorities as LYING and saying suicide bombers could be EITHER Kurdish rebels or Islamic State

when we all know it is Islamic State as the kurds declared a ceasefire.

and we know the kurds would not be bombing their own people protesting against the Islamist Erdogan government which has been supporting the Islamist agenda

brace yourselves for Islamophobia claims
