The
seizure is likely to increase concern in Europe that jihadis are
exploiting the migrant crisis to smuggle themselves and their weapons
into the continent.
The army said in a
statement: "Between 12 and 15 kilos of explosives and four belts that
could be used for suicide attacks were found in two bags."
A group of 34 people, including four men, 10 women and 20 children, were stopped in Turkey's southeastern border town of Karkamis.
