Turkey strikes Iraq, Syria after attack on defence company near Ankara 

On Wednesday, attackers set off explosives and opened first at TUSAS, an aerospace and defense company in Ankara, Turkey’s capital. TUSAS designs and manufactures unmanned aerial vehicles, civilian and military aircraft, and other systems. Turkey is blaming the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), a terrorist organization, for the attack. The attack killed five people and wounded over 20.
