Four people have been killed and 14 injured in a suicide blast in front of the Aerospace Industries building in the suburbs of Ankara, the capital of Turkey.
Turkish Interior Ministry officials say the blast was suicide. One attacker blew himself up and the other opened fire on security forces. According to Turkish media reports, the attack was carried out by three attackers, including a woman.
The Turkish Ministry of Defense said that the attack in Turkey was carried out by “PKK” terrorists.
There was an exchange of fire between the forces and the assailant for some time. Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yarlikaya says that the incident took place outside the building of the Turkish aerospace and defense equipment manufacturing company TUSAS.
This company, which became an attack factory, is famous for the production of Birkatar drones and Turkey’s first fighter jet, Kan, is also the product of this company.
Four people were killed and fourteen were injured in a suicide attack on the headquarters of an aviation company. This factory is 40 km away from Ankara.
Habar Turki TV reported that the exchange of fire occurred after a loud explosion outside the complex. It was not known how many attackers there were. NTV said that after the explosion and firing, the employees of the company were evacuated to a safe place.
According to Turkish media reports, TUSAS is one of the main suppliers of defense equipment and armaments in Turkey. According to official statements, there is no doubt that this incident is a terrorist attack.
