Turkish Wedding Explosion Kills 30

An explosion at a wedding in southeastern Turkey killed 30 people and injured 94 others Saturday night, the state-run news agency Anadolu reported.

The blast occurred in the city of Gaziantep, located about 95 kilometers (60 miles) north of the war-torn Syrian city of Aleppo.

Regional Governor Ali Yerlikaya called the incident a "terror attack" and said it took place in Akdere neighborhood of the Sahinbey district, Anadolu reported.

The agency added that the wedding celebration took place on a street, which is common in southern Turkey.

Video of the aftermath shows hundreds of people in the darkened street as rescue workers lift victims into ambulances. Orhan Akin, Gaziantep bureau chief for the Ihlas News Agency, told CNN Turk that he saw "at least 20 ambulances carrying injured people."

No group has claimed responsibility for an attack, and no details on what caused the explosion were immediately available.
