An explosion has caused many casualties near a wedding hall in the southern Turkish city of Gaziantep, Turkish media report.
Some reports say several people were killed by the blast.
Gaziantep Governor Ali Yerlikaya told Turkey's Anadolu news agency that the "terror attack" took place in Akdere, in the city's Sahinbey district.
Gaziantep is about 64km (40 miles) from the Syrian border. A suicide bomber killed two policemen there in May.
Southern Turkey has been hit by several deadly blasts over the past year, linked either to Kurdish separatist militants or so-called Islamic State (IS).
Often the attacks were linked to developments in the war raging in Syria.
