Thirty-six people have been confirmed dead in a bomb and gun attack on Istanbul's international airport on Tuesday.
Turkey's prime minister Binali Yildirim suggested that the attack may have been perpetrated by Islamic State. Three suicide bombers blew themselves up after opening fire.
Calling for the incident to be seen as a turning point in the world's fight against militancy, the Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan said "the bombs that exploded in Istanbul today could have gone off at any airport in any city around the world."
Over 140 people were injured in the attack.
