Yes, Kurds were the ones murdered in this “terrorist” bombing. IMHO it is likely that this was done in coordination with the Turkish Islamist-leaning government which is initiating a war with the Kurds.

The blast occurred ahead of a planned “peace” march to protest against the conflict between the state and Kurdish militants in southeast Turkey.

It had been organised by unions and civil society groups, according to Turkish officials. Tensions with Kurdish separatists have soared recently.

The explosion occurred at a time of growing security concerns in Turkey, and three weeks ahead of a parliamentary election.
