Eight killed in bombing in Turkey

Eight people were killed in a bombing in the Turkish city of Gaziantep, an official in the

Interior Ministry said Monday.

A spokesman for the Gaziantep governorship said 66 people were wounded in the blast.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the explosion, which officials said was caused by a remote-controlled car bomb. However, southeastern Turkey has seen frequent attacks by the Kurdish Workers Party (PKK), designated a terrorist group by Turkey, the US and European Union.

"Our fighters have nothing to do with this explosion," Firat News, a website close to the PKK, cited the armed group as saying in a statement on Tuesday.
