At least 28 people have reportedly been killed and dozens injured in an apparent terror attack at Turkey's biggest airport, officials have claimed.
Three suicide bombers detonated their explosives at Ataturk Airport in Istanbul after police fired shots at them, it's reported.
At least 60 people are believed to have been injured while hero taxi drivers ferried wounded people from the terminal.
Chilling footage has emerged believed to show the moment the suicide bomber blew himself up seconds after being shot by police.

The wounded attacker is seen falling to the floor before writhing around and eventually managing to detonate a suicide bomb.
An officer appeared to wrestle with the wounded bomber before running away moments before the bomb blast.
Police fired shots to try to stop the attackers just before they reached a security checkpoint at the arrivals hall of the Ataturk airport but they blew themselves up, a Turkish official said.
