Many die in Turkey wedding attack
很多人在土耳其婚礼袭击中死亡
Relatives gather outside the city hospital where the dead and injured were taken
At least 45 people have been killed in an attack on a wedding party in south-eastern Turkey, officials say.
Mask-wearing assailants opened fire with automatic rifles（自动步枪） and grenades（手榴弹）, officials in Mardin province said.
The area, near the border with Syria, has been plagued by fighting between Kurdish separatists（分离主义者，独立派） and government troops（政府军队） for 25 years.
But Turkey's Interior Minister Besir Atalay said the attack did not appear to be a "terror event".
Local media have suggested the violence might have been the result of a blood feud 1 or an argument between guests.
Other unconfirmed reports said the wedding guests included members of a militia 2 who help troops to fight Kurdish rebels.
Horrifying 3 scene
The BBC's David O'Byrne in Istanbul says six children appear to be among those killed in the attack, in the village of Bilge Koyu about 20km (12 miles) from the city of Mardin.
One relative who took the body of his nephew to a hospital said the site of the attack was horrifying.（令人震惊的，令人毛骨悚然的）
"You could not believe your eyes," Ahmet Can told Channel 24.
Ferhat Ozen, deputy governor of Mardin province, said the assailants stormed into a house where wedding guests had been assembled（安装的，组合的）, firing automatic rifles and throwing hand grenades.
Paramilitary police were sent to the village to pursue the attackers, he said.
Mr Atalay said 45 people had been killed in the attack and six were wounded.
"Based on the investigations 4 so far, we have reached the opinion that it was not a terror event, but the prosecution（实行，经营，起诉） is still investigating," he said.
Although he did not mention the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) by name, analysts 5 say his comments suggest the government is ruling out an attack by Kurdish militants 6.
Rebels have been battling for more autonomy（自治） since 1984 in the south of Turkey - an insurgency 7 （起义，暴动，叛乱）which has claimed more than 40,000 lives.
The violence means many people carry guns - and our correspondent says tribal（部落的，种族的）and family loyalties（忠诚，忠心） in the region run deep.
