Turkey condemned the terrorist attack in Orlando which killed 50 and wounded 53, in a written statement issued by the Foreign Ministry late June 12.“We condemn the terrorist attack that caused scores of loss of lives and extend condolences to the people of America,” it said.
A gunman killed 50 people and injured 53 in a massacre at a gay nightclub in the tourist hub of Orlando, Florida, early on June 12. The attack was described as a “terrorism incident” by United States authorities.
