28 killed, 60 injured in Istanbul airport attack

A gun and suicide bomb attack on Istanbul’s Ataturk international airport has killed at least 28 people and injured up to 60.
The Istanbul governor gave the new toll after reports of 10 fatalities.
Up to three attackers were involved, with one reportedly opening fire with a Kalashnikov as they targeted an entry point to the terminal.
Recent bombings in Turkey have been linked to either Kurdish separatists or the so-called Islamic State group.
Tuesday’s airport attack looks like a major, co-ordinated assault, says the BBC’s Mark Lowen at the scene.
Ataturk airport was long seen as a vulnerable target, our correspondent says. There are X-ray scanners at the entry to the terminal but security checks for cars are limited.
