At least one solider has been killed and six others injured in a mine
bomb blast in Turkey's northern province of Amasya, Press TV reports.
The explosion occurred on Zana Bridge in Cigdemli village in the
suburbs of Amasya as a police vehicle was crossing over the bridge.
The injured were rushed to a nearby hospital. No group has claimed
responsibility for the attack yet.
However, Kurdistan's Workers Party (PKK) has been repeatedly blamed
for violent attacks against Turkish military forces.
The PKK is listed as a terrorist organization by much of the
international community, including Turkey, Iran, the European Union,
and the United States.
