ISIL claims Diyarbakir bombing days after 'al-Baghdadi urged attacks on Turkey'

ISIL has claimed responsibility for a deadly car bomb attack in Diyarbakir, southeast Turkey.

The attack in the early hours of Friday morning (November 4) came less than two days after an audio message – purportedly made by ISIL leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi – was released in which he urges fighters to attack both Turkey and Saudi Arabia. The recording has not been verified.
