Shocking CCTV footage from inside Istanbul’s Ataturk Airport appears to show a suicide bomber blowing himself up after being shot down by police.
The video, which began circulating on Twitter and other social media outlets shortly after the attack began. Footage shows people running away from a man who appears to be running through the airport with a gun. Suddenly, the man drops to the ground, apparently after being shot, and drops his gun, which slides beyond his reach. The man writhes about on the ground, and jerks his arm up at one point (perhaps pulling something). A few seconds later, he explodes in a fearsome blast.
Please be advised that the content below is graphic, with the end of the video showing what appears to be body parts from the bomber.
