Turkey twin blasts in Ankara: In pictures

Dozens of people have been killed in twin blasts in Turkey's capital, Ankara. The blast happened at about 10:00 local time (07:00 GMT), as people had been gathering for a peace rally that was due to start at midday.

People travelled to Ankara from other cities to call for an end to the violence between the Turkish state and Kurdish militant group the PKK.

Just after 10:00, there was a powerful explosion, quickly followed by another blast outside the city's train station.

There were scenes of panic as survivors rushed to help the injured, and many people were reported to be lying on the ground.

One witness told the BBC that it took about half an hour for ambulances to arrive.

People at the scene took the injured to hospital in buses and taxis, one eyewitness told the BBC.

At least 86 people were killed and 186 injured in the twin blasts, according to officials.

The bodies of those who died were covered in flags that were to be taken to the rally.

Here two survivors are seen on the steps of the railway station where the impact of the blasts can been seen.

The pro-Kurdish HDP party, whose supporters were going to the rally, said riot police arrived after 15 minutes and there were angry scenes.

Police fired tear gas, which some said hampered the rescue effort.

The crowd became angry and a local resident said that some people tried to attack police cars after the blasts.

Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said the attack was "loathsome" and "targeted our unity and our togetherness".

Elections are due to be held on 1 November. The leader of the HDP has blamed the state for the attack and cancelled all election rallies.

Crowds of people reportedly queued at a hospital in the city waiting to donate blood.

Carnations have been placed at the scene of what is the deadliest attack of its kind in modern Turkish history.

A sit-down demonstration was later held to protest about the explosions.
