Budrigannews.com – According to security sources, a bomb exploded in a roadside vehicle on Friday as their minibus passed on a highway in the southeastern province of Diyarbakir, injuring eight Turkish police officers.

According to Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu, two individuals had been arrested and were believed to have been responsible for the blast.

He stated, “At 05:10 a.m. (0210 GMT), as a police vehicle was going to work in Diyarbakir, there was an explosion in a parked vehicle.”

The bomb did not injure anyone critically, according to the Diyarbakir governor’s office; however, nine people in the armored minibus were taken to the hospital for examinations.

According to sources, the blast occurred near a livestock market 10 kilometers (6 miles) south of the center of Diyarbakir, the region’s largest city.

No immediate claim of responsibility was made. In the past, Islamist, Kurdish, and leftist militants have all carried out bomb attacks in Turkey.

Last month, in Istanbul, the largest city in Turkey, a bomb injured dozens and killed six people. A Syrian woman was among the dozens of people held as suspects.

That explosion was attributed by Turkey to Kurdish militants, but no organization claimed responsibility at the time. Both the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) denied involvement.

In 1984, the Kurdish-majority southeast of Turkey was the primary focus of the PKK’s insurgency against the Turkish government. In the conflict, more than 40,000 people have been killed.

The United States, Turkey, and the European Union all consider it to be a terrorist organization.
