An explosion damaged a wall next to a NATO military area in Turkey's western coastal city of İzmir on Thursday, but there were no reports of casualties.
The explosion took place near a cemetery and the NATO facility, which is used by the US air force, in the Konak district of İzmir. The blast destroyed part of a wall between the cemetery and the military area and shattered windows in nearby buildings. Initial findings suggested the blast was caused by a stun grenade left near the wall, adding that an operation had started in the area to capture the perpetrators.
