The radical Marxist-Leninist organization DHKP-C has claimed several attacks in the past in Turkey. Several attacks, attributed to or claimed by different armed groups, have recently targeted Istanbul and Ankara. A man was killed at the end of January in Istanbul during mass in an Italian Catholic church during an attack claimed by the Islamic State group.
