A bomb blast has killed one person and injured 13 others near a bus stop in Turkey’s biggest city of Istanbul.

A Kurdish separatist group, the TAK, said it carried out the attack in response to recent violence in the mainly Kurdish south-east of Turkey.

Seven people died during several days of clashes between Kurds and Turkish riot police in the region – the worst for many years.
