Bombing in Kusadasi, Turkey

The United States condemns the vicious terrorist bombing of a minibus that killed five people and wounded thirteen in the Turkish resort city of Kusadasi July 16. We express our profound condolences to the victims and their families. Senseless attacks such as this only reinforce our determination to combat terrorism wherever it appears, and no matter who is responsible. We stand together with our ally, Turkey, in our common fight against terrorism.
