Four workers were killed in a car attack in southeastern Turkey, the provincial administration said, blaming the members of the Kurdish Workers Party banned in the country.

According to the statement, a car was blown up on Wednesday and four workers were killed because of the improvised explosive device installed on the road by members of the Kurdish Workers Party, RIA Novosti reported.

As the Turkish side noted, after the resumption of the armed conflict between Turkey and the Kurdish Workers Party in July 2015, about 1,000 military and police officers, as well as about 500 civilians, were killed in attacks by Kurdish rebels.
