Yesterday, a suicide bomber struck Suruc in Turkey wounding hundreds and killing 32 young activists, the pictures above are some of the people who died.
The attack is suspected to be an ISIS attack though the group are yet to take responsibility of the crime.
According to CNN, Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu told a news conference Tuesday that "one suspect has been identified" and that all that person's "links domestically and internationally are being investigated."
"Right now links to ISIS and it being a suicide bomber have gained probability," he said. "We expect the investigation to be completed as soon as possible."
Davutoglu on Monday described ISIS as "not just a threat to Syria but to Turkey as well."
He urged solidarity among the Turkish people, saying the attack was not against any one part of the country but "against all of us."
 
A  funeral was held for the victims today as most of the bodies could not be recognized.
