24 people, including 10 policemen were injured in PKK's bomb attack on a police bus in Turkey's southeastern Mardin province late Friday, stated security sources.
PKK terrorists planted a bomb at an overpass and detonated it when a bus carrying the policemen passed through.
The injured officers and civilians have been taken to Kızıltepe and Mardin State hospitals.
Security forces have launched a wide-scale operation into the incident.
The PKK is listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and EU.
More than 60 security personnel have been killed by the PKK terrorist organization, as tensions in the southeastern region of Turkey have flared up since a bombing linked to ISIS on July 20 in Suruç, which claimed the lives of 34 people.
