Gunmen Attack Israeli Consulate in Istanbul, Prompting Security Response
In Istanbul, a building housing the Israeli Consulate was attacked by three gunmen, leading to a gunfight with Turkish police. One attacker was killed, and the other two were wounded and captured. The assailants, who traveled from Izmit, were armed with long-barreled weapons. The attack resulted in minor injuries to two police officers. Turkish officials, including President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, condemned the attack, labeling it a 'treacherous' act. The U.S. ambassador to Turkey and Israel's Foreign Ministry also condemned the assault and praised Turkish security forces for their swift response. The consulate is located in a high-rise building in Istanbul's business district, and no Israeli diplomats were present due to security concerns.
