Blast in Ulus

So just one week after starting this blog, when things looked a lot calmed down, and i am sure not many people were expecting to hear about a bomb blast in the heart of Turkey's capital, it happened.
I wasn´t expecting it. I could not imagine I would hear about a bomb in a bus stop in the middle of the populous, working class Ulus district.

As we were listening to the news,we all hoped it was just gas leak or some kind of tragic accident. But police sources have stated that remains of explossive have been found near a bus stop, of a sort called A 40.

So far 6 people have been declared dead and more than 50 people have been reported injured.
Of course, figures are expected to keep changing along the evening. Hopefully they will not increase.
