Τουρκία: Δύο δασικές πυρκαγιές απειλούν τον αυτοκινητόδρομο Σμύρνης-Τσεσμέ

Two were killed and two others were injured against a police station near the west, Turkish Interior Minister Ali Gerlikaya said today.

As he said, one of the two injured is in serious condition, while the 16 -year -old perpetrator has been arrested.

Pictures that broadcast Turkish television networks show security forces to block the area around the police station.

In addition, a video that took an eyewitness to the attack and broadcast Turkish media, shows a young man holding a hunting shotgun and hurriedly removed from the point of attack.

“I condemn this disgusting attack on the Salih Isgioren Police Department in Baltsova,” Jamil Tugai’s mayor of Smyrna wrote in X.

In the past, Kurdish rebels, Islamist organizations and far -left groups have been reported in Turkey, with security forces often targeting.
