KUNA : Turkey denounces recent air strike on Sudan – Politics – 27/10/2012

ISTANBUL, Oct 27 (KUNA) — Turkey condemned on Saturday a recent air strike that targeted a weapons plant in the Khartoum region.

Anatolian News Agency, citing a Foreign Ministry statement, said Ankara “strongly denounces the bombing of the Sudanese plant that killed two persons and inflicted massive damage.

Turkey “awaits revelation of identity of culprits of this attack,” the official statement said, re-affirming support for Sudan.

Sudanese officials accused Israeli Air Force of staging the attack on the factory for manufacturing weapons and ammunition, and vowed to retaliate in kind.

Tel Aviv has remained tightlipped regarding the strike, the third of its kind on targets on Sudanese territories.

In April 2011, Sudan accused Israel of being behind a mysterious air raid against a vehicle that killed two people in Port Sudan. A similar attack was carried out on a weapons convoy in eastern Sudan in January 2009. (end) ta.rk KUNA 271122 Oct 12NNNN
