Turkey's foreign ministry has issued a disgruntled official stance against Germany and Austria, the DHA news agency reported. It highlights the "unacceptable election campaigns of politicians in both countries - against Turkey, on the grounds of blocking the process of EU accession."

According to the DHA news agency, a powerful explosion took place off in the Marmara Sea in Turkey, Friday. The incident took place as oil was being pumped from the tanker.

Ambulances and firefighter teams have been dispatched to the scene.

According to Turkish media reports, one person has died and two others have been injured.

Alparslan Celik, whom Russia suspects killed the pilot of a Sukhoi 24 bomber shot down by Turkey in November, is currently in Turkey.

"I am not afraid," one of the leaders of Turkmen fighters in Syria said, according to Turkey's DHA agency.
