Fresh terrorist horror was brought home to the UK yesterday as one Briton was killed and five seriously injured when a suspected woman suicide bomber detonated her explosives on a minibus packed with young holidaymakers in a popular Turkish seaside resort.
An unnamed British woman was one of five fatalities, including an Irish woman in her twenties, who died when the blast ripped through their vehicle as it took them to a popular beach in the Aegean resort town of Kusadasi, 45 miles south-east of the port of Izmir.
The bomb, which blew off the roof and sides of the vehicle carrying 14 holidaymakers travelling with UK tour company Thomas Cook, dramatically reinforced the sense of a concerted terrorist campaign against British targets worldwide, with increasing evidence pointing to al-Qaeda.
Foreign Secretary Jack Straw condemned this "repugnant act, saying it had ruined the lives of innocent people." He added: "Our thoughts and prayers are with all the victims and their families."
"As always we stand shoulder to shoulder with the people of Turkey, in sympathy and in our refusal to allow terrorists to destroy our values and our liberty."
Coming 10 days after the suicide bombings in London, which have so far claimed 55 lives, the latest bombing in Turkey strongly suggests a carefully coordinated series of attacks against British interests, raising fears that further attacks may be in the pipeline.
The attack happened at about 10:45am local time (8:45am BST) as the bus made its way from the town bus station towards an area known as Kadinlar Denizi, or Ladies Beach. Some victims were rushed to nearby hospitals while others were taken to Izmir.
