ANKARA (AA) - Turkish Parliament Speaker Cemil Cicek referred to Saturday's suicide bomb attack on a Turkish Embassy annex in the Somalian capital of Mogadishu and said, "We understand that we stepped on someone's foot. Because Turkey becomes more effective in that region every other day. Turkey tries to show increasing the life standards in there by holding humanitarian projects via different ways and methods."
Following his visit to the wounded police guards at an Ankara hospital, Cicek spoke to reporters which he stated that a very disgustful terrorist attack took place in Turkey's Somalian Embassy, upsetting everybody in there.
"One of our security guards has become a martyr there. Four others have been brought to this hospital via our government for their further treatment. We came to say get well soon," Cicek added and informed that wounded were recovering.
Cicek stressed that Turkey was holding a humanitarian duty in Somalia and emphasized, "Turkey is doing the necessary of a friend country. We know that there are some powers that are uncomfortable with Turkey's facilities and efforts in that region. Unfortunately, they used terrorist organizations once again in order to block Turkey's Africa openings."
One Turkish security guard was killed and several others were injured on Saturday while two suicide bombers were killed as another suicide bomber blew himself up in front of staff building of Turkey's Embassy in Somalian capital Mogadishu.
