Explosion Hits Military Vehicle İn Turkey's East

Suspected members of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) detonated an explosive placed on a road in the eastern province of Tunceli as a military vehicle was passing, but no casualties were reported.

The explosive placed on the Tunceli- Elazığ road link exploded during the passing of a military vehicle early on Aug. 13. A military vehicle and a civilian vehicle were damaged as a result of the explosion, which also created a four-meter-deep hole in the road.

Reinforcements were deployed to the area, while an operation to apprehend the militants has begun.
