Five arrested in connection with suicide bombing at Istanbul's main tourist area

Turkish police have arrested five people suspected of direct links to the suicide bombing that killed 10 Germans in Istanbul's main tourist area.

More than a dozen other suspected IS militants were detained on Wednesday in other parts of the country and 59 a day earlier, but officials say they do not appear to be tied to yesterday's attack just steps away from the Blue Mosque in Istanbul's historic Sultanahmet district.
