Suicide bombing at Istanbul’s Ataturk airport left 36 people dead

Suicide bombing and gun attack at Istanbul’s Ataturk international airport left 36 people dead and 147 injured on Tuesday.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Several suicide blasts hit the entrance, exit and a parking lot of the airport’s international terminal at about 10 p.m. local time (19:00 GMT).

Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said that three suicide bombers participated in the attack. Initial indications suggest that Daesh, outlawed in Russia, is responsible for the terrorist attack, though the investigation is still underway, Yildirim said at a press conference Wednesday.

Not sure why this has not been posted here already and i cannot see why ISIS would attack Turkey who was buying oil from them so many the have changed sides in an effort to make it up with Russia after shooting down a fighter jet last year.

Maybe Turkey is looking for an excuse to invade Syria but it does seem strange.
