Turkey: Riot police use water cannon, tear gas to disperse Suruc protesters

Riot police used water cannon and tear gas to disperse crowds in Suruc, Monday, after protesters gathered in solidarity with the victims of the attack in Suruc that killed dozens earlier in the day. A forensic team and other professionals also gathered to analyse and look for clues at the site of the explosion. At least 28 people were killed and 100 injured in a reported cluster bomb attack that hit the town, which is located near the Syrian border in southeastern Turkey. The attack targeted a gathering of the Socialist Youth Associations Federation (SGDF), who gathered to organise humanitarian assistance to Kobane. Turkish officials claim the attack was conducted by the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL).
