It is worth noting that the Fatih neighborhood contains the majority of the city's important historical and cultural attractions, including Sultanahmet Square and a number of prominent mosques.

The explosion came just two days after a bomb rocked Istiklal Street in Taksim Square in Istanbul. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that the explosion in Istanbul left six people dead and 53 injured.

Istiklal Street was hit during a 2015-2016 attack campaign targeting Istanbul and other cities, including Ankara. These bombings, which killed nearly 500 people and injured over 2,000, were mostly blamed on ISIS and outlawed Kurdish militants.

Istiklal Street in Istanbul's ancient district of Beyoglu is one of the city's most well-known thoroughfares.
