ISTANBUL, Turkey — At least six people were killed and 53 others injured in an explosion on Istanbul's best-known commercial street, according to Turkey's leader.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan described Sunday's blast on Istiklal Avenue as an attack and vowed to identify those responsible for it.
"Our people should be assured that the perpetrators of the incident on Istiklal Avenue will be punished as they deserve," he said. "The relevant units of our state continue to work to uncover the perpetrators of this treacherous attack and the groups behind it."
There was no immediate explanation or claim of responsibility.
