Two dead in Turkish tourist zone bomb

Mon Aug 28, 2006 10:20am ET

Marmaris is a resort popular with west European and Russian tourists as well as Turks. Some 1.8 million Britons are expected to visit Turkey this year, most to the country's coast.

Locals are concerned the tourist industry, a powerful motor of the Turkish economy, would be further dented by the attacks, which are the latest in a string of bombings over the past year.

"The people who set off these bombs have reminded us how vulnerable we are to the scourge of terrorism and the need for all our governments to work together to defeat it," British Ambassador Peter Westmacott told reporters in Marmaris.

Istanbul police chief Celalettin Cerrah said six passers-by had been injured when a device exploded on a road near a school in the Bagcilar district of Istanbul late on Sunday.


CHASING CULPRITS

"With the efforts of our security forces we will capture those behind the blasts as soon as possible and bring them to account," said Governor Temel Kocaklar.

Security was stepped up along the coast, still packed with tourists.

"These explosions were not directly against British tourists. Many Turks were injured too," Marmaris state official Cemalettin Ozdemir told patients, according to Anatolian news agency.

Kurdish separatists, leftists and Islamic militants have carried out bomb attacks in Turkey in the past.

they really need not put 'tourist zone' there

everyone knows those,schools and public places are targets for them

they should just tell us when they finally target the military,thats more surprising
