Yeah, flashed up on BBC News app earlier.
Not safe to travel anywhere these days, esp flying!

Updated info first thing this morning. 36 people dead and more than 140 injured

It was a gun and bomb attack

"Three attackers opened fire near an entry point to the terminal late on Tuesday and blew themselves up after police fired at them, officials say."

Apparently the airport has in the past been designated as an easy target due to the lack of security when entering by car...

The reality is that there is no way to stop these attacks. If a suicide bomber is intent on their misguided mission, that's what will happen. The only way to prevent these attacks at airports is to have vehicle checks before cars arrive at the terminal. This would cause massive delays, and although people might initially be in favor of it, they would soon begin to complain. It's a pessimistic outlook, but that's the way it is.
