Hello everyone,

Due to terror bombings that occurred on March 13 in Kizilay, in the heart of Ankara, foreign nationals who are on the spot or who are planning to travel there are advised to be highly cautious. Attacks have made 34 victims so far and 125 people were injured.

It is recommended to avoid gatherings and to be particularly careful while moving across the capital.

Our heart goes out to the families of victims and to you as well.

Take care.

Whatever the reason for killing people, several groups and governments seem to think such stupidity is acceptable, but normal people are almost the victims.

Stay safe, and keep your eyes out for the usual stuff such unattended bags and people that look way out of place.

Unfortunately there is no such thing as avoiding public places. People have to go to work/school and for that they need to use transportation. Yesterday's explosion happened where most people take public buses DAILY. And that is not something you can avoid, sadly.
