B’nai B’rith International has issued the following statement:

B’nai B’rith International is outraged by the suicide bombing attack on the U.S. embassy in Ankara, Turkey, that killed a Turkish security guard and injured several others.

Turkish Interior Minister Muammer Guler said the bomber was likely part of a far-left group, but offered no possible motivation for the attack.

We hope Turkish officials will expeditiously investigate the bombing and bring those behind this terrorist act to justice.

We extend our thoughts and prayers to the victims and their families.
