A car bomb and rocket attack has killed two police officers and wounded 35 people in Southeastern Turkey.

Four of the people injured are in a serious condition, Turkey's state-run news agency reports.

The attack targeted a traffic police station in Nusaybin, a town on the border on the Turkish-Syrian border.

Turkish security forces have attributed the bombings to fighters from the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK).

It comes after two women attacked police with gunfire and a grenade in an Istanbul suburb.

The two female assailants were later killed in a shootout with police.
