Seventeen people - 11 Russians and 6 Turks - have been charged over the Istanbul airport attack, Dogan news agency reported on Tuesday, bringing the total number charged over the suicide assault to 30.
The latest suspects were charged with "belonging to an armed terrorist group".
Ankara says ISIS is behind the June 28 gun and bomb attack at Atatürk International Airport, which left 45 people dead.
Thirteen suspects had already been charged Sunday in connection with the worst of several attacks to hit Turkey's biggest city this year.
