Турция в трауре по погибшим в результате смертельного теракта в Стамбуле

38 погибших и еще 136 получили ранения в результате произошедшего в субботу (10 декабря) двойного взрыва в центре Стамбула, недалеко от "Водафон-Арены" "Бешикташ", после футбольного матча.

Министр внутренних дел Сулейман Сойлу сообщил, что среди погибших семеро гражданских, остальные 30 являлись сотрудниками полиции и тело еще одного до сих пор не опознано.

В связи с терактом задержаны тринадцать подозреваемых, добавил Сойлу.

Министр здравоохранения Турции Реджеп Акдаг сообщил, что 14 раненых находятся в реанимации.

Как сообщает агентство новостей Анадолу, нападения произошли в субботу вечером, около 10:30 часов вечера (19:30GMT) в европейской части Стамбула прозвучали два взрыва.

Спустя два часа после окончания футбольного матча в рамках турецкой лиги между Бешикташем и Бурсаспора за пределами футбольного стадиона в районе Бешикташ был взорван начиненный взрывчаткой автомобиль.

По словам Сойлу, через несколько секунд произошел второй взрыв в парке Мачка в том же районе. Террорист-смертник взорвал себя после того, как его заметили полицейские.

Турецкое правительство объявило воскресенье днем траура, по всей республике приспущены флаги.

Сообщения солидарности с Турцией и осуждение нападений прозвучали со всего мира. В заявлении Верховного представителя ЕС по внешней политике и политике безопасности и Комиссара ЕС по вопросам расширения, Йоханнеса Хана, говорится следующее:

"Мы выражаем наши искренние соболезнования родным и близким погибших и желаем скорейшего выздоровления пострадавшим. Европейский Союз вновь заявляет о своей неизменной солидарности с Турцией и ее народом. Мы вновь подтверждаем наше решительное осуждение всех террористических актов и подтверждаем нашу неизменную приверженность тесному сотрудничеству с Турцией в борьбе с угрозой терроризма".

Germany accuses Russia of cyberattacks and disinformation campaign

The German government holds Russia responsible for a cyberattack on German air traffic control, and for targeted disinformation campaigns before the last federal election. According to the German Foreign Office in Berlin, the incidents could be clearly attributed to the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. In response, the Russian ambassador to Berlin was summoned to the Foreign Ministry. "We have been observing a massive increase in threatening hybrid activities by Russia for some time now," a spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry stated. These range from disinformation campaigns and espionage to cyberattacks and sabotage attempts. The aim is to divide society, sow distrust, and undermine confidence in democratic institutions. The spokesperson added that with these actions, Russia is "very concretely threatening our security, not only through its war of aggression against Ukraine, but also here in Germany."  The Foreign Ministry spokesperson explained that the cyberattack on air traffic control in August 2024 was clearly attributed to the hacker collective "APT28," known as "Fancy Bear," and to the responsibility of the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. Furthermore, it could now be "conclusively stated" that Russia had attempted "to influence and destabilize both the last Federal election and the ongoing internal affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany." There was "absolutely irrefutable evidence" for this". The so-called "Storm 1516" campaign, which has been running since 2024, is allegedly backed by "reliable information" that the Moscow-based think tank "Center for Geopolitical Expertise" is behind it. The Center is also said to be supported by Russian military intelligence. Its primary aim is to influence democratic elections in the West. (Click the image to read more).
