At least 5 people have been killed and 10 more injured in a car explosion in Ankara, local authorities said. The blast happened
in close proximity to the Turkish parliament building, reportedly hitting a military dormitory.
Social media users in Ankara say they heard a loud noise all across the city, and posted photos of a huge plume of smoke rising over downtown Eskisehir Avenue.
Omer Celik, a spokesperson for Turkey's ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), said on his Twitter account that the explosion was the result of a "cowardly terrorist attack."
CNN Türk said that military lodging facilities were targeted and there were a large number of casualties.
Twenty ambulances were sent to the scene of the blast, media reported, citing medical officials.
Witnesses reported helicopters circling the area above the blast.
Comment: The genetically modified crops that were forced on African nations and which were supposed to withstand drought and increase yields, have obviously done nothing of the sort.
