Turkey on Tuesday condemned the attack against the convoy of Palestinian premier in blockaded Gaza Strip.

An explosion struck near the convoy of Palestinian Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah in the Gaza Strip earlier in the day, which premier described as an "assassination attempt".

"We strongly condemn the armed attack against the convoy of Palestinian Prime Minister Hamdallah in Gaza today," the Turkish Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

"We wish that our Palestinian brothers act in unity and solidarity against this provocative attack," it added.

Turkey also wished a speedy recovery for the wounded and expected the perpetrators of the attack to be identified as soon as possible.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the bombing.
