NEARLY 100 people have been killed after two explosions went off in a terror attack at a peace ralley in Turkey.
Ninety-seven people have been confirmed dead and at least 400 were wounded when two devices exploded in capital Ankara, according to the Turkish Medical Association.
Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said two suicide bombers are believed to have been behind the blasts, speaking in a televised address to the nation.
Terrifying footage shows the moment one of the bombs went off at the packed demo, thought to have hosted around 14,000 people, as protestors ran for their lives.
Another explosion is thought to have been detonated seconds later.
Three days of mourning have been announced as the country grieves one of the worst terror attacks in Europe.
Horrific photos of the aftermath of the double blast showed victims’ bloodied bodies lying in the street as frantic emergency workers raced to help.
Flags and banners, which were being used to promote Kurdish rights, were turned into makeshift stretchers by protesters tending to the injured.
The attacks took place close to the city’s main train station shortly before 10am as people gathered for a “peace and democracy” demo.
They were protesting against a conflict between Turkish security forces and Kurdish militants in the south east of the country.
State media watchdog The Turkish Supreme Board of Radio and Television (RTÜK) imposed a ban on broadcasting images of the blast.
Turks reported Twitter has been blocked on some of the country’s most popular networks, including Turkcell and TTNET, and many are unable to access Facebook in the wake of the blasts.
Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu called an emergency security meeting to discuss the attack, which Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan described as “heinous”.
Parts of the Turkish capital are currently on lockdown with heavily-armed troops patrolling the streets.
