Istanbul attack: World leaders condemn Turkey suicide bombings
Leaders from different parts of the world condemned the terror attacks on Istanbul's Ataturk International airport in Turkey. Leaders also expressed sympathies for the victims and their families.
The suicide attack on Tuesday night killed at least 36 people and injured innumerable others in three blasts at the terminal entrance of the international airport.
The Republican US presidential nominee, Donald Trump said the attack was "so sad". "Yet another terrorist attack, this time in Turkey. Will the world ever realize what is going on?" he tweeted.
We must do everything possible to keep this horrible terrorism outside the United States.

"Today's attack in Istanbul only strengthens our resolve to defeat the forces of terrorism and radical jihadism around the world. And it reminds us that the United States cannot retreat," she added in the statement.
