Turkey vows to cleanse Islamic State from its border after wedding attack kills 54

Deputy Prime Minister Mehmet Simsek earlier said the attack was believed to have been carried out by a suicide bomber, while another ruling party politician said Islamic State militants were behind the attack.

The attack is the latest in a surge of violence this week in Turkey's mainly Kurdish southeast.
