Turkish blast: Several dead as Kayseri bus hit

A suspected car bomb in Turkey has killed 13 soldiers aboard a bus and wounded 48 more, the Turkish army says.

The blast destroyed a bus carrying soldiers who had been allowed to visit a local market. An army spokesman said civilians may also have been injured, BBC reports.

The explosion comes a week after 44 people were killed by a bomb attack in Istanbul claimed by Kurdish militants.

Turkey has suffered a series of fatal bombings in 2016 at the hands of both Kurdish militants and jihadists.
