Two explosions at a peace rally in the Turkish capital Ankara have killed at least 30 people and injured 126, the interior ministry says.
TV footage shows scenes of panic and people lying on the ground covered in blood, amid protest banners.
The blasts took place near the city’s central train station as people gathered for a march organised by leftist groups.
Turkey’s president condemned the attacks as “terrorist acts”.
Government officials are investigating reports that a suicide bomber was behind at least one of the explosions.
The pro-Kurdish HDP party was among those attending the rally.
The leader of the HDP has blamed the state for the attack, which he called “a huge massacre”, and cancelled all election rallies.
Turkey is holding a re-run of June’s inconclusive parliamentary elections on 1 November.
