ANKARA (Reuters) - Simultaneous bomb blasts hit the offices of Turkey's opposition pro-Kurdish Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) in two southern cities on Monday, wounding six people three weeks ahead of a parliamentary election, an HDP official said.
The HDP said President Tayyip Erdogan, who hopes the polls will pave the way for passage of sweeping new executive powers, bore political responsibility along with his allies for the attacks - the latest in what it said were some 60 assaults on its offices and members in the build-up to the June 7 election.
