Attackers set off explosives and opened fire at Turkey’s state-run aerospace and defence company TUSAS, killing five people and wounding at least 14 others, the interior minister said.A member of the Turkish Jandarma stands guard at the entrance of the Turkish Aerospace Industries facility after the attack.Yerlikaya said the militant Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, is suspected of being behind the attack but cautioned that the process of identifying the assailants continued.
TUSAS designs, manufactures and assembles civilian and military aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles and other defence industry and space systems. Its UAVs have been instrumental in Turkey gaining an upper hand in its fight against Kurdish militants both on its own territory and across the border in Iraq.
The country’s pro-Kurdish political party, which also condemned the attack, noted that it had occurred at a time when the possibility of a dialogue to end the conflict had emerged. The interior minister said security teams were dispatched as soon as the attack started at around 3:30pm Ankara time.
