It's so awful.

Religious nuts, part of a game plan. Great shame.

Oh fucking hell, those poor people, so 2017 starts as it will go on.
May they rest in peace.

Oh shit

RJnomore1 · 01/01/2017 00:33

On the positive side security in the U.K.appears to have held tight tonight.

What an awful thing on turkey though.

GobblersKnob · 01/01/2017 00:34

Horrible. Poor poor people

MadisonAvenue · 01/01/2017 00:36

Oh no, this is horrible.

LegoCaltrops · 01/01/2017 00:36

Bloody hell. Why do people have to be so hateful.

RabbitSaysWoof · 01/01/2017 00:38

It has so far RJ, the Istanbul attack was 1:30 their time, so they probably thought same. Those poor people, it's so depressing there's just no let up for them.

Cantgetmyoldnameback · 01/01/2017 00:39

Apparently people were jumping into the Bosphorus river to escape.

Fucking bastards Angry

MrTumblesbitch · 01/01/2017 00:43

I've just seen this- I actually checked the news to make sure all was okay before I went to sleep. Those poor people, I hope the rest of Europe stays safe tonight

JustWoman · 01/01/2017 00:46

I just saw in news ten mins ago and it's was saying no fatalities yet,so sad to hear it's over 35 now :(

Cantgetmyoldnameback · 01/01/2017 00:54

BBC News have been reporting 35 dead for a while now. It always takes some time to get accurate numbers at atrocities like this, I guess. Reporting the club would've been packed with many hundreds of people there.

A friend just told me on kik 😢 What a terrible start to the New Year.

CoteDAzur · 01/01/2017 00:58

There were apparently two shooters dressed as Santas.

Reina is a beautiful club. I have been there many times, years ago.

By the way, the Bosphorus is a sea not a river.

thenightsky · 01/01/2017 01:00

Oh no Sad

Cantgetmyoldnameback · 01/01/2017 01:03

Oops, thanks for the correction re the Bodphorus.

I realised earlier that I felt no shock on hearing the news, just sadness. These attacks seem almost invitable now.

Apparently there was intelligence about a possible attack in Reina tonight, which is why there was police at the door. He was the first to be shot as the gunmen entered.

iwanttobemissmarple · 01/01/2017 01:13

Terrible - Reina is such a fabulous restaurant/club. Those poor people & their families. What a way for 2017 to start.

Tram10 · 01/01/2017 20:22

Absolutely horrendous, RIP to al those who lost their lives and healing thoughts to those injured and dealing with the loss of their loved ones.

1horatio · 01/01/2017 21:33

Horrendous. May God rest their souls in peace.

BeyondTheStarryNight · 02/01/2017 12:47

It's awful and so relentless. I swear every other post my Turkish friend updates Facebook with recently is another attack.

Is there another thread about this btw?
