At least two people are dead in Istanbul, Turkey today, after a bomb exploded on a public bus in a residential neighborhood.

Hours earlier another bomb went off in front of a hotel in Ankara, in the same hotel where President George Bush will stay this weekend. Bush will be in Ankara to meet with Turkish leaders before heading to Istanbul for the NATO Summit.
