The first blast occurred near a bank in the city of Adana. It was followed by a second explosion several minutes later at a nearby construction site.

Among the injured were bank employees, students and police officers. The blasts also damaged several police vehicles and shops.

No-one has admitted responsibility for the blasts.

Police are investigating whether the blasts were the result of remote-controlled bombs.

Turkey has been hit in the past by bomb attacks which police blamed on left-wing groups and Kurdish rebels.
