At least 86 dead in Turkey after blasts at peace rally

Two bombs targeting a crowd of peace marchers Saturday in the Turkish capital have killed at least 86 people and injured 186 others, Turkey’s health minister said, according to the Associated Press.
The explosions occurred minutes apart at a morning peace rally in Ankara organized by civil society groups, reports said. One video circulating on social media appeared to show a bomb exploding behind a group of demonstrators dancing at a gathering point outside Ankara’s main train station. Another video posted to the Web site of CNN’s Turkish-language service showed surveillance footage of people fleeing a fiery explosion at a public square in the background.
