Iran Press/ Asia: "A sacrificial action was carried out against the Turkish Interior Ministry by a team from our Immortal Brigade," said the PKK, according to France 24 news agency.
Earlier, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that "terrorists" will never achieve their aims, hours after the blast injured two police officers.
The powerful explosion outside the interior ministry, which was followed by large flames, was heard several kilometers from the site of the attack.
The targeted district is home to several other ministries and the Turkish parliament, which reopened as planned in the afternoon with an address from President Erdogan.
