At least 38 people have been killed and many more injured in a twin bomb attack on police officers outside Besiktas stadium in Istanbul, Turkey.
A car bomb hit a police car and a suicide bomber detonated a suicide vest in quick succession on December 10.
The explosions occurred near the stadium of the top-division team, two hours after a match. Ten arrests were made.
Turkish government says initial findings point towards Kurdish militants, who have targeted police in the past.
Deputy PM Numan Kurtulmus told CNN Turk news channel that “arrows point” to the Kurdistan Worker’s Party (PKK).
According to officials, 30 of those killed in the attack were police officers.
A further 155 people were being treated in hospital, 14 of them in intensive care, health officials say.
Images posted on Instagram after the explosion showed helmets strewn on a road and damaged cars.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the explosions “aimed to maximize casualties”.
The blasts came two hours after the end of the match between top teams Bursaspor at Besiktas at the Vodafone Arena.
