At least three people were wounded when a car bomb in Turkey's southeastern province of Batman targeted a gendarmerie station on Friday, police and hospital sources said.
Two soldiers and one civilian were wounded by the blast, at a checkpoint in front of the station in Batman's Bekirhan district, the sources said. Several ambulances and fire trucks were sent to the area after the explosion, Reuters reported.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, although the private Dogan news agency said militants from the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) were believed to be responsible.
