Description

Emergency responders were seen around the headquarters of the Turkish aerospace company Tusas in Ankara on Wednesday, following reports of gunfire and explosions.

Footage shows emergency vehicles blocking off the roads around the site, as well as armed officers, squad cars speeding to the scene and a helicopter flying overhead.

The Interior Ministry described it as a 'terrorist' attack', with four people reported killed and 14 others injured.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, currently in Kazan, Russia for the 16th BRICS Summit and related events described it as a 'heinous terrorist attack'. Russian President Vladimir Putin passed on his condolences following the loss of life.

The precise nature of, and motive for, the attack is still under investigation. Some media outlets suggested it was a suicide attack. Tusas is one of the country's top defence companies, producing Turkey's first combat fighter jet, the Kaan.
