ISTANBUL (AP) — A Turkish official say four Kurdish rebels have been killed while loading explosives onto a truck in the southeast of the country.

The explosion, which wounded 10 others, occurred in the province of Diyarbakir late Thursday, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak to the media.

The explosion came hours after an explosion targeting the Turkish military wounded eight people in Istanbul.
