Tourists were earlier warned about Turkey becoming a "Terrorist Hotspot" as these attacks were pending ...


WARNING: British tourists told NOT to travel on buses or trains in Turkey over ISIS threat

BRITISH tourists visiting Turkey have been urged to avoid public transport over terror attack fears in a shock new warning from the Foreign Office.

British tourists could be targeted by Islamic State bomb attacks in Istanbul

Advice posted on the Foreign Office website yesterday said: "On 27 July there were reports of possible threats to public transport in Istanbul."


It followed the leak of an internal memo from Turkish police warning of the threat.

More than 2.5million Britons visit Turkey every year – but the Foreign Office has now advised against all but essential travel to certain regions.

After granting the US permission to use Turkish air bases for strikes against radical terrorist group the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) in Syria, Turkish air forces began heavily pounding bases of the terrorist Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in northern Iraq, causing ripples of dismay and outrage among senior officials within the US military, the US-based Fox News Channel has said.

“We had U.S. Special Forces not far from where the Turks were bombing, training Kurdish Peshmerga fighters,

I think most people would take the advice posted from the FOREIGN OFFICE to NOT travel there to Turkey in the first place!

But then, if they were there on some "ESSENTIAL BUSINESS" then, I agree that they should ALSO take the other advice, kindly supplied by your Express headline, to avoid buses! :roll:

However, the overall updated advice from HM Gov is:

Turkey - Terrorism

There is a high threat from terrorism. On 10 August, 2 people opened fire outside the US Consulate-General in Istanbul. On 27 July there were reports of possible threats to public transport in Istanbul,

Basically, you can avoid ALL forms of transport if you take the Foreign Office's PRIMARY advice and avoid Turkey in the first place! Right?

On second thoughts, please, just go! I'll even buy you a one-way-ticket to the HOTSPOTS! :roll:
