Istanbul in Shock Following Airport Attack

Istanbul’s main international airport, Ataturk, was the scene of mayhem Tuesday evening when terrorists approaching the arrival hall opened fire on police and bystanders before detonating suicide vests they were wearing, killing at least 36 people and wounding 150 others. Turkish officials said the Islamic State (IS) terror militia was most likely responsible, while Israeli officials immediately offered to help Turkey.
