Turkey and the US immediately condemned the attack and US officials urged Americans to stay away from all US diplomatic offices throughout Turkey. A Turkish woman was also seriously wounded and two other guards sustained lighter wounds in the 1:15 pm (1115 GMT) blast in the Turkish capital, Interior Minister Muammer Guler told reporters. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but Guler said information obtained by police indicated that the bomber was likely connected to a domestic left-wing militant group. He did not elaborate. "Of course the suicide bomber is related to an organisation. I cannot give you information yet, but I will let the media know as soon as I get more information about it," he said. Guler also told reporters there was some evidence the bomber was Turkish, but said he would provide "more detail about it in a while". A police official, meanwhile, told The Associated Press that the bomber is most likely a suspected member of the outlawed Revolutionary People's Liberation Party-Front, or DHKP-C. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not permitted to speak to the press. The group has been designated a "terrorist organisation" by the US but had been relatively quiet in recent years. Friday's explosion occurred inside the security checkpoint at the side entrance to the US embassy, which is used by staff. Police and ambulances swarmed the area and authorities immediately cordoned it off. Forensic investigators in white outfits and gloves combed the site. In a statement, the US embassy thanked Turkey for "its solidarity and outrage over the incident." US Ambassador Francis Ricciardone declared that the US and Turkey "will continue to fight terrorism together" and described the US Embassy compound as secure.
