Two children have been killed when a bomb planted by the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) exploded in the southeastern Turkish province of Sirnak, the local governor's office says.
Four more children were also wounded in the attack, the governor's office said in a statement after Saturday's blast.
Earlier in the day authorities appointed a new mayor to the Sirnak municipality. Turkish authorities have been replacing municipal officials in the mainly Kurdish southeast, accusing them of supporting the outlawed PKK.
