RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman have sent cables to Turkiye’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan condemning the terror attack on the Turkish capital, Ankara.

A suicide bomber detonated an explosive device on Sunday at the entrance to the country’s interior ministry injuring two policemen.

Turkiye on Monday said it had carried out attacks on suspected Kurdish military targets in Iraq.

The PKK, which maintains bases in northern Iraq, claimed responsibility for the suicide bombing, according to a news agency close to the rebel group.

The Saudi leaders said the Kingdom stands with Turkiye and its people, and wished the injured a speedy recovery.
