Bomb in Turkey kills 1, injures 14
A home-made bomb left on a bicycle exploded at a market in the Turkish port city of Izmir today, killing one person and injuring 14 others, the state-run Anatolia news agency said.
The blast occurred a day before a planned march in Izmir that was expected to draw hundreds of thousands of secular Turks to demonstrate against the Islamic-rooted government’s attempts to raise the profile of Islam in the country.
