Turkey Rocked by Terrorist Attacks This Year

Terrorists killed at least 41 people and wounded hundreds more in a deadly attack on Istanbul’s Ataturk International Airport Tuesday evening.

No group has yet claimed responsibility for the coordinated terrorist attack at the third-largest airport in Europe. Three attackers arrived at the airport by taxi and began shooting, officials said, with two in the international terminal and one located in the parking lot. Police engaged the attackers, and the assailants then detonated their suicide vests, according to reports.
