Two suspected ISIS jihadists arrested in Ataturk Airport

Two suspected ISIS jihadists have been arrested in Ataturk Airport in Istanbul - the two had with them night-vision binoculars, fake passports and military-style clothing and were from Kyrgyztan. One of the earlier suicide bombers who killed 45 persons in an attack in the airport a week back was also from Kyrgyztan.
This has been reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 4 July 2016.

It may be recalled that 45 people have died following the attack on Tuesday night. In the attack, three men walked into the airport and open fire before blowing themselves up. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack so far, but the Turkish government believes ISIS was behind it. Moreover, there are suspicions that the bombers were part of a Russian-speaking unit of jihadis and was led by a one-armed Chechen warlord.
Anyway, the two men now arrested have been identified and are aged 25 and 35 respectively. It is still not clear whether they were arriving or leaving Ataturk Airport. Police have recovered night-vision binoculars and military-style clothes from their suitcases along with two passports in different names.
