Istanbul -- A top Turkish official blamed Syria and its secret police for Saturday's bombings in the southern Turkish town of Reyhanli in which dozens of people were killed and scores were wounded.
Deputy Prime Minister Besir Atalay leveled the accusation against President Bashar al-Assad's government and the Mukhabarat, Syria's secret police, in comments aired by the Turkish news agency Cihan.
They came a few hours after more than 40 people were killed when two car bombs exploded Saturday afternoon in the town, Turkish Interior Minister Muammer Guler said [....]
The blast drew swift condemnation internationally, including from U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, who vowed that Washington will "stand with our ally, Turkey." [....]
Abu Marwan was just outside of the town when he heard the blasts and hurried to the scene of one of them, where he saw "body parts everywhere." [....] "People with sticks in their hands are going after Syrians," Marwan said. "We almost have more Syrians here than Turks, and people are getting angry." [.....]
