London: Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has vowed to boost the security along the border with Syria, following a bombing in the town of Suruc that killed 30 people.

According to BBC, it is believed that the blast was caused by a female suicide bomber belonging to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), said investigators.

Turkey is now cracking down on militants after previously ignoring them, according to reports.
