The Guardian:

At least 28 people have been killed and 60 injured in an attack by three suicide bombers on Turkey’s largest airport, Istanbul Atatürk, according to senior officials. Vasip Şahin, the governor of Istanbul province told the NTV news channel that 28 people had died, and said that authorities believe three suicide bombers were involved, because there were three separate explosions. Another Turkish official told the Guardian that the suspects blew themselves up outside the security checkpoint at the entry to the international terminal, after police opened fire on them.

Yet another terrorist attack, this time in Turkey. Will
the world ever realize what is going on? So sad.

A reminder that Turkey is a place with *intense* levels of government control and surveillance. Not like it's some civil liberties paradise
