Leftist Militant Group Claims Responsibility For Embassy Bombing

In a statement posted on its website Saturday, the leftist militant group Revolutionary People’s Liberation Party-Front, or DHKP-C, claimed responsibility for the suicide bombing at the U.S. Embassy in Ankara, Turkey that killed a security guard.

It said the suicide bomber, Ecevit Sanli, carried out the act of “self-sacrifice” on behalf of the group.
