Turkish resort blast kills four
An explosion on a minibus in the Turkish Aegean resort of Kusadasi has killed at least four people.

At least 14 other people were wounded, including five Britons who were seriously injured, UK sources said. Turkish officials are investigating the possibility that the blast was caused by a suicide bomber or a parcel bomb, a local governor told reporters.

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan called the blast a "terrorist attack" without laying specific blame.

"The government will naturally take the necessary measures accordingly," he added.

The BBC's Jonny Dymond in Istanbul says Kurdish militants are the most likely suspects if it was a bombing.
