Istanbul bombers were all smiles before deadly attack

Moments before slaughtering 43 people, three terrorists were captured in this chilling image all smiles as they strolled carefree toward Istanbul’s Ataturk Airport.

The three men, who reportedly held Russian passports, were hiding suicide vests under their jackets, Kalashnikov assault rifles and Glock pistols, the Mirror reported.

The man in the red T-shirt at front was identified as Russian national Osman Vadinov, the paper reported.

Behind him, one smiling man is seen clad in a puffer jacket and wearing a dark cap. To his left and right behind, the third man — also grinning — is holding a light blue bag.

The photo is reminiscent of an image that caught three jihadists walking through the Brussels airport in March before launching an attack there that killed 16 people.
