Turkey detains 13 suspects over airport attack

Turkish police on Thursday rounded up 13 suspects over the triple suicide bombings at Istanbul's international airport that left 42 people dead, a Turkish official said.

He did not reveal the nationalities of the foreign suspects, but said it was "probable" that at least one of the Ataturk airport bombers was a foreign national.

The Hurriyet newspaper identified one of the three bombers that struck Turkey's busiest airport on Tuesday as Osman Vadinov, a Chechen of Russian origin.

Vadinov reportedly crossed into Turkey from Raqa in Syria, the stronghold of the Islamic State group which authorities believe was likely behind the attack.
