Kabar24.com, JAKARTA - Vodafone Arena, stadion yang merupakan markas klub Super Lig Turki Besiktas, menjadi sasaran ledakan dua bom kembar, satu di antaranya diduga bom bunuh diri, hanya sesaat setelah klub itu menundukkan Bursaspor 2-1. Insiden itu menewaskan sedikitnya 29 orang.

President Turki Tayyip Erdogan menggambarkan ledakan terjadi di luar stadion di Istanbul itu pada Minggu pagi WIB (11/12/2016), dan mengatakan bahwa teroris bermaksud menyerang polisi dan warga sipil.

Dia menyatakan tujuan bom diledakkan sesaat setelah pertandingan selesai agaknya bertujuan agar memaksimalkan jumlah korban karena jumlah penonton mencapai ribuan orang. “Akibat serangan ini kita mendapatkan para martir dan korban terluka,” kata Erdogan.

“Tidak ada yang pantas meragukan bahwa dengan kehendak Allah, kita sebagai negara dan bangsa akan mengatasi teror, organisasi teroris, dan kekuatan di belakang mereka,” lanjut Presiden Turki.

Serangan itu mengguncang bangsa Turki yang gila sepak bola dan masih berusaha untuk pulih dari serangkaian pengeboman mematikan tahun ini di Istanbul dan ibu kota Ankara, di mana ISIS atau gerilyawan Kurdi dituding sebagai pelaku kejahatan itu.

Seorang pejabat seniort, mengutip Kementeria Kesehatan, mengungkapkan sedikitnya 29 orang tewas dalam serangan tersebut dan diperkirakan 166 lainnya terluka.

Pertandingan Besiktas versus Bursaspor dimenangi tuan rumah dengan skor 2-1 di mana kedua gol Besiktas dicetak melalui titik penalti oleh Cenk Tosun pada menit ke-52 dan 65. Sedangkan gol balasan Bursaspor dikontribusi Emere Tasdemir pada injury time babak kedua.

Berkat kemenangan itu, Besiktas kini mendulang nilai 32 dan menempati posisi kedua klasemen sementara liga utama Turki, sedangkan Bursaspor di peringkat kelima dengan nilai 24. Besiktas, yang dilatih mantan kiper Timnas Turki Senol Gunes, adalah juara bertahan Super Lig Turki.

Twin bombing outside Istanbul soccer stadium kills 29, wounds 166


Two bombs exploded less than a minute apart, killing 29 people and wounding 166 outside a soccer stadium in Istanbul on Saturday night, in a co-ordinated attack on police shortly after a match between two of Turkey's top teams.

First a car bomb exploded outside the Vodafone Arena, home to Istanbul's Besiktas soccer team, leaving flaming wreckage on the street. Forty-five seconds later, a suspect wearing explosives detonated them while surrounded by police in an adjacent park, Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmus told a news conference.

President Tayyip Erdogan described the blasts as a terrorist attack on police and civilians. He said the aim of the bombings, two hours after the end of a match attended by thousands of people, had been to cause the maximum number of casualties.

"Nobody should doubt that with God's will, we as a country and a nation will overcome terror, terrorist organisations ... and the forces behind them," he said in a statement.

The attack shook a soccer-mad nation still trying to recover from a series of deadly bombings this year in cities including Istanbul and the capital Ankara, some blamed on the Islamic State jihadist group and others claimed by Kurdish militants.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility. But the blasts came less than a week after Islamic State urged its supporters to target Turkey's "security, military, economic and media establishment".

"It was like hell. The flames went all the way up to the sky. I was drinking tea at the cafe next to the mosque," said Omer Yilmaz, who works as a cleaner at the nearby Dolmabahce mosque, directly across the road from the stadium.

"People ducked under the tables, women began crying. Football fans drinking tea at the cafe sought shelter, it was horrible," he told Reuters.

Turkey is a member of the NATO military alliance and part of the U.S.-led coalition against Islamic State. It launched a military incursion into Syria in August against the radical Islamist group. It is also fighting a Kurdish militant insurgency in its own southeast.
