Turkey's President Erdogan reiterated the country’s resolute stance against terrorism after a bomb blast in southeastern Diyarbakir's Kulp district killed at least seven people. The district mayor was detained after the attack.
The Children of the Fire Initiative, a group affiliated with the PKK terror organisation, said they started 27 separate fires in western metropolitan cities between July 11 and August 24, destroying hundreds of hectares of forested land.
