At least 48 people have been wounded in a bomb attack that hit southeastern Turkey's Van province Monday, near the governor's office and the headquarters of the ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party.
A bomb-laden vehicle exploded Sunday near the police station in front of the AK Party building, injuring 48 people, including two police officers, Van Governor's Office has confirmed, according to Turkish news agency (Anadolu).
Authorities blamed the outlawed Kurdish Workers' party (PKK) for the attack.
Two of the injured were in critical condition, Van police chief Suat Ekici said.
The blast heavily damaged the AK Party building and a nearby hotel. Windows of nearby houses and storefronts were also shattered in the blast, Ekici added.
