At least 36 people have been killed and scores more wounded following an attack on the main international airport in Istanbul – the latest in a series of attacks in Turkey’s capital in recent months.
Three suicide bombers reportedly attacked at the airport, reportedly opening fire with guns before they detonated their explosives.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan condemned the attacks, reportedly saying he expected the world to show a decisive stance against terrorist groups.
“If states, as all humanity, fail to join forces and wage a joint fight against terrorist organisations, all the possibilities that we dread in our minds will come true one-by-one,” he reportedly said.
Australia’s Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said it was a “very sad day” for the people of Turkey and people who love freedom.
