Turkey charges 14 militants with anti-US plot
None
A court has charged 14 suspected al-Qaeda militants for allegedly planning to attack the U.S. Embassy in the Turkish capital.
The court in Ankara formally pressed charges against the suspects late Friday. Another suspect was released, though may later also face trial. The state-run Anatolia news agency said on Saturday that a key suspect had carried out surveillance around the US Embassy in Ankara and some other foreign missions, including taking photos. It said police have seized 700kg of chemicals along with bomb-making instructions, assault rifles, ammunition and maps of Ankara. (AP)
