Istanbul Blast: 36 Killed, More Than 140 Injured And Hrithik Roshan Escaped Death By Mere Hours

Last night as soon as the news of Istanbul Attacks spread, the whole world went under the shock.

On Tuesday, three terrorists armed with bomb and guns started shooting inside and outside the terminal at Istanbul Ataturk Airport in Turkey. After police fired at them, they blew themselves up.

36 people were killed in the attack and around 147 people were injured. Though there was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack but Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim said that the ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) group carried out these bombings and killings.

The attack happened at Istanbul Ataturk Airport around 10 pm and the security camera footage at the airport captured two of the blast. The unsuspected attack left the passengers terrified at the airport.

The flights into the airport were diverted to the capital of Ankara and other cities and the airport was closed overnight for some hours. Early on Wednesday, the airport was opened for outgoing and incoming flights.

Hrithik Roshan Was At The Istanbul Airport Before The Attack with His Sons.

Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan was on a vacation with his sons  Hridhaan and Hrehaan and they were returning from Serengeti National park in Tanzania via Istanbul. Three of them were at the Istanbul airport before the bombing.

Hrithik missed his connecting flight in Istanbul and was told to wait for 18 hours for the next flight but he decided to fly economy class and took an earlier flight out of Istanbul. The 42-year-old actor shared this news via his twitter account.
