THE GULF WAR: The International Front : In Europe
Left-wing terrorists in TURKEY bombed three Western targets in the port city of Izmir, destroying five cars and wounding two people in attacks believed linked to the Persian Gulf War. Bombs exploded outside the French Consulate, the Turkish-U.S. Cultural Institute and a U.S. warehouse in Izmir, 340 miles southwest of Ankara. The Turkish terrorist group Dev Sol, or Revolutionary Left, claimed responsibility. In GREECE, authorities called in about 1,000 police to guard possible guerrilla targets in Athens after a wave of rocket and bomb attacks on foreign firms seen as a show of support for Iraq in the war.
