DUSHANBE, February 18, 2016, Asia-Plus – International media outlets report a car bomb killed 28 people and wounded dozens more on Wednesday, targeting military vehicles in the center of the Turkish capital, Ankara.

Mehmet Kiliclar, the governor of Ankara, as saying, said that officials believe the blast near the parliament building was caused by a vehicle exploding, the Associated Press reported.

Reuters quoted Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus as saying 28 people were killed, including soldiers and civilians, and 61 wounded.

The blast reportedly targeted a bus carrying military personnel as they waited at traffic lights in the Turkish capital’s central Kizilay district, an official at the armed forces’ General Staff told Reuters .  The blast struck some 300 meters from Turkey’s parliament building.

Newsweek reports that no group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack but Turkey’s major cities and Turkish authorities have been the targets of attacks by the Islamic State militant group (ISIS) and other groups, such as the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and the leftist DHKP-C, who have also conducted attacks in Turkey within the last year.

The blast comes just four months after twin suicide bombs killed more than 100 people in the city. ISIS claimed responsibility for that attack.
