Watch: The moment of the explosion during a demonstration in Turkey
At least 27 people were killed and more than 100 others were injured in a terror attack that was committed today in the town of Suruc in Turkey near the border with Syria.
The terror attack took place during a demonstration that was held by political activists this afternoon in front of the cultural center in Suruc, in protest of the government ignoring members of the Kurdish community who reside in the nearby town of Kobani, which has been taken over by the Islamic State.
In footage documenting the terror attack taken by one of the activists at the demonstration, dozens of protesters are seen carrying huge signs and calling out against the government, when suddenly a forceful explosion occurs. Moments later, demonstrators can be seen running around frantically amongst the dead and injured.
Turkish officials are pointing the blame towards the Islamic State, but the deadly terror organization has yet to take responsibility for the terror attack.
