Multiple gunmen opened fire near the building that houses the Israeli consulate in Istanbul’s Besiktas district; local sources say the consulate has been closed for about two years and was likely unstaffed. Turkish officials report a gunfight in which one attacker was killed, two suspects were captured and two officers were wounded, though some local accounts have given different casualty figures. The incident adds to a recent series of attacks on Israeli- and Jewish-linked sites internationally.
