(IP) - The Iranian Embassy in Türkiye strongly condemned the suicide bombing on Sunday in which a suicide bomber detonated an explosive device near an entrance of the Ministry of Interior Affairs, injuring two police officers. A second assailant was killed in a shootout with police.

Iran PressAsia: The Iranian embassy expressed sympathy to the Turkish government and nation and wished the injured a recovery. 

The Iranian embassy added that Iran stands along with Türkiye in the fight against all forms of terrorism.

PKK, listed as a terror group by Türkiye and its Western allies, claimed responsibility for a suicide bombing in the Turkish capital of Ankara on Sunday that injured two people. 

"A sacrificial action was carried out against the Turkish Interior Ministry by a team from our Immortal Brigade," said the PKK.

The powerful explosion outside the interior ministry, which was followed by large flames, was heard several kilometers from the site of the attack on Sunday. 

Turkey’s military carried out airstrikes targeting Kurdish militants in northern Iraq on Sunday, just hours after the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) claimed responsibility for a deadly bombing in the capital in the latest attack of its nearly four-decade-long insurgency.
