Bomb Explodes Aboard Turkish Airliner

Three Ground Workers Hurt

Just hours before President Bush was to leave Ataturk, Turkey Tuesday, a small package exploded on board a Turkish Airlines aircraft, injuring three members of the cleaning crew.

"After the passengers got off, the cleaners entered the aircraft. Then a booby-trapped parcel, resembling a wallet went off," said Turkish Airlines spokesman Recep Guvelioglu.

The worker who handled the package lost several fingers in the explosion, authorities said. The aircraft had just arrived in Istanbul from the city of Izmir in western Turkey.
