Turkish authorities have imposed a temporary blackout on distribution of any material concerning the aftermath and investigation of the bombing in Istanbul today, they say, due to the ongoing inquiry and security issues.

This affects ALL news coverage in online print, photos and video being sent back into Turkey.

Clients are advised to seek their own legal advice if they intend to transmit material already supplied by the AP and ongoing news coverage of this specific attack and its aftermath, back into Turkey.

This has been the AP's guidance in previous instances after the Turkish government imposed such a blackout a few hours into an unfolding attack.

People living in Istanbul say they are having to get used to deadly attacks being a feature of daily life in the Turkish city.

A day after Tuesday's car bomb that killed 11 people and wounded 36 others, several local residents spoke to The Associated Press about the attack - the fourth to hit Istanbul this year.

“It has kind of become normalised", said shop owner Hasan Donmez on Wednesday morning.

There was no immediate responsibility claim for Tuesday's blast but Turkey has witnessed an increase in violence linked to Kurdish rebels and Islamic State group militants.

Hours after the explosion, police detained four suspects for their possible involvement in the attack, the state-run Anadolu Agency reported.

Authorities imposed a news blackout preventing media from reporting details of the investigations, citing concerns over security and police and forensic efforts to investigate the attack.

Officials on Wednesday morning began assessing the damage caused at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport by three suicide bombers who killed dozens and wounded more than 140.

Workers were brought in to remove debris left by the blasts, while in the daylight the damage to the terminal became clearer with even ceiling panels hit.

The airport was partially reopened, with the information board inside the airport showing that about one third of scheduled flights have been cancelled, with a host of others delayed.

Shop owners and residents started clearing away shattered windows on Tuesday after a car bomb killed 11 people and wounded 36 others in Istanbul during the morning rush-hour.

There was no immediate responsibility claim but Turkey has witnessed an increase in violence linked to Kurdish rebels and Islamic State militants.

Ahmet Aslan, who runs a shop near the blast site, told The Associated Press he saw lots of wounded people following the blast.

The blast shattered windows at a famous 16th-century Ottoman mosque, wrecked several cars and forced the cancellation of some exams at nearby Istanbul University.

Tuesday's attack was the fourth major bombing in Istanbul this year, with two of them targeting tourists and the others hitting security forces.

The spike in violence has led to a sharp dip in tourism, a mainstay of the Turkish economy.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has repeated that the Islamic State group "most probably" was behind the Istanbul airport attack, adding that its militants would end up "in hell."

Speaking in Istanbul following Friday prayers, Erdogan said the extremist group claims to carry out acts in the name of Islam, but said it has nothing to do with the religion.

Tuesday's attack which was carried out by three suicide bombers, killed 44 and injured hundreds.

Thirteen people, suspected of possible links to the attack, were detained in raids in three Istanbul neighborhoods on Thursday, officials said.

Haber Turk newspaper said on its online edition that 11 more suspects, all of them foreign nationals, were detained in a separate raid on a house in Istanbul early on Friday. A government official in Istanbul could not immediately confirm the report.

An explosion on Istanbul's main pedestrian shopping street has killed at least five people and injured 20 others, Istanbul's governor said on Saturday.

STORYLINE:

Istanbul's governor said on Friday that police dismantled a group of al-Qaida militants in Turkey accused of suicide bombings that killed 62 people in Istanbul last month. But he said five or seven leading members were at large abroad.

Authorities have captured most of the alleged militants and seized about 500 kilogrammes (1,100 pounds) of explosives, including the military explosive RDX, according to Governor Muammer Guler who spoke at a news conference.

Istanbul Police Chief Celalettin Cerrah said the seized explosives were enough to make three or four truck bombs.

Guler said police also discovered more details about last month's attacks, which targeted two synagogues, a London-based bank and the British Consulate.

He said "all dimensions of the attacks from the planning to activating have been exposed by the Istanbul police. They were carried out by the elements of al-Qaida who were trying to create a structure in Turkey."

Guler said about 160 people have been detained and 35 of them have been charged for involvement in the bombing so far. Ten other suspects, including a key member identified as Harun Ilhan, were expected to face charges later on Friday.

Guler, however, said five or seven leading members of al-Qaida's structure in Turkey were at large and were believed to be abroad.

News reports have suggested that some members could be in Iraq, but Guler said it wasn't clear where they were.

But Guler said the group accused of the bombings was no longer a threat.

It was not clear whether there were any other alleged al-Qaida cells operating in Turkey.

Guler said al-Qaida had been organising in Turkey for the past year or two. He said most suspected members who were detained underwent training in Afghanistan or Pakistan.

Along with the explosives that were found, police seized five assault rifles, more than one-thousand rounds, 12 shotguns, three guns and two single-shot "pen guns" during the raids, according to a police statement.

Guler said Turkish security forces were still taking security measures for New Year's Eve as usual. A leaked police document earlier this week warned that terrorists may be planning attacks at against US, Israeli and eastern targets in Turkey in the week between Christmas and New Year's Eve.

A memorial service was held for the victims of Tuesday's gunfire and suicide bombing attack at the Ataturk Airport in Istanbul in which 43 people were killed and more than 230 others injured.

VISION ENDS

STORYLINE:

Hundreds of people demonstrated on Sunday (11th December) against Saturday's bombings outside Istanbul's Besiktas Stadium, while Turkish football fans later showed their support for the victims by turning out to watch cross-city rivals Galatasary at the Turk Telekom Arena in the city.

SCRIPTING INFORMATION:

A day after twin bombings killed 38 people near a football stadium in Istanbul, Turkish soccer fans again showed up in droves to watch "the beautiful game" on Sunday.

The twin car-and-suicide bombings Saturday night near the Besiktas stadium also wounded 155 people and enraged top officials, including President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who vowed to hunt down the perpetrators.

Sunday night's game pitted Istanbul's Galatasaray - a rival of Besiktas - and Gaziantepspor at a different stadium in Istanbul - the Turk Telekom Arena.

Fans vowed to not let Saturday night's events prevent them from watching their team play - and Galatasaray lifted the spirits of the local fans with a 3-1 victory.

Earlier in the day, hundreds of flag-carrying demonstrators had marched along Istanbul's coastline towards the Besiktas stadium.

In a show of solidarity with the victims of Saturday's attacks, many laid flowers outside the stadium to pay tribute to the dead.

Turkey has declared a national day of mourning and launched a full investigation into the attacks, which have been claimed by a Turkey-based Kurdish militant group.

CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: Turkey's prime ministry office has imposed a temporary blackout on coverage of the explosion that occurred Saturday in Istanbul, citing public order and national security reasons.

The order asks media organisations to refrain from broadcasting and publishing anything that may cause "fear in the public, panic and disorder and which may serve the aims of terrorist organizations."

The blackout includes: "moment of blast; aftermath of the blast and site of explosion; public servants conducting their jobs; injured and dead… exaggerated analysis…analysis and anything related to the people suspected of involvement with the attack, their methods of transport and whereabouts".

This affects ALL coverage distributed inside Turkey.

Clients are advised to seek their own legal advice if they intend to transmit material already supplied by the AP and ongoing news coverage of this specific attack and its aftermath back into Turkey.

Tradesmen in the Sultan Ahmet tourist district of Istanbul expressed their concern on Wednesday that business could be affected following a suicide bombing in the area.

A female suicide bomber blew herself up at a police station in the area on Tuesday, killing one policeman and wounding another, according to Turkish authorities.

Istanbul Governor Vasip Sahin said the woman entered the police station and reported a missing wallet before detonating a bomb.

The leftist Revolutionary People's Liberation Party-Front, or DHKP-C, said it carried out the attack, calling it "an act of sacrifice."

Ahmet Balta has a carpet shop opposite the police station.

He was there when the attack occurred.

Balta told the Associated Press that traders in the area were concerned the incident could affect their businesses, with tourists scared away.

It is the second attack on police in a week in Istanbul.

On Thursday, police subdued a man after he threw grenades and fired a weapon at officers near the prime minister's offices.
