Truck bomb attack on soldiers kills 18 in southeast Turkey Posted: 09 Oct 2016 08:14 AM PDT Ten Turkish soldiers and eight civilians were killed on Sunday when suspected Kurdish militants detonated a five-tonne truck bomb that ripped through a checkpoint near a military outpost in the country's southeast, the prime minister said.
