The two bombers — a man and a woman — died in the incident outside a horse farm in Ankara but no one else was hurt. Two suicide bombers blew themselves up after refusing to surrender to police during an operation in the outskirts of the capital Ankara on Saturday, a senior official said. Governor Erkan Topaca said police, acting on a tip, launched an operation to catch a man and a woman who were suspected of planning a suicide car bombing in Ankara. Mr. Topaca said the pair would have carried out a suicide car bomb attack although their target was not known. Fighting between the PKK and the state security forces resumed last year after the collapse of a fragile two-year ceasefire.
