Terror attack on Turkish aviation site leaves 3 dead

A deadly attack was carried out at the Turkish Aerospace Industries’ headquarters near Ankara on Wednesday, the government said, as broadcasters showed footage of several armed assailants entering the building amid reports of gunfire and a loud explosion.

A local official official says an attack on the premises of the Turkish state-run aerospace and defence company TUSAS on Wednesday left three people dead and wounded five. Selim Cirpanoglum, mayor of the district of Kahramankazan, told international media that the attack on the company in the outskirts of the capital, Ankara, had abated.

NATO head Mark Rutte said the military alliance would stand with its ally Turkey.
