Turkey Blocks Access To Twitter After Bombing

A court in Turkey temporarily blocked access to Twitter on Wednesday, after prosecutors in the town of Suruc, near the border with Syria, called for a ban. 

Suruc was the scene of a deadly suicide attack on Monday, in which 32 people were killed.

Turkish media now report that the ban has been lifted.
