A TERRORIST bomb attack in southern Turkey killed at least 30 members of a socialist youth organisation yesterday.

The attack in the southern city of Suruc in Urfa district targeted a gathering of 300 Socialist Youth Associations Federation (SGDF) members from Istanbul, the ANF news agency reported.

The SGDF was holding a press conference in the garden of the Amara Cultural Centre, before leaving for the nearby city of Kobane in northern Syria to help with reconstruction, when the bomb detonated.
