Two dead, over 100 injured after explosions at milestone rally of Turkey’s HDP

Two people have been killed in two explosions ahead of the HDP rally in the southeastern Turkish province of Diyarbakır. While Energy Minister Yıldız ruled out claims of an accident at a power distribution unit, HDP co-chair Demirtaş, who was only 30 meters away, called everyone to stay calm.

Turkey’s elections: knowns and unknowns

open Democracy News Analysis – by Dimitar Bechev

Yet for all the high stakes involved, and the suspense of this eve-of-poll moment, we sort of know who will win.
