Two injured in Istanbul explosion

An explosion in a restaurant in the Turkish city of Istanbul has injured two people - a Dutchman and a Turkish restaurant worker.

The restaurant where the blast took place is under the Galata bridge in the historic part of the city.

The cause is not known, but police said they had ruled out a gas leak.

Istanbul has been the target of bomb attacks by illegal left-wing organisations, Kurdish separatists and Islamic militants.
