One of them was located just outside the terminal on the pavement, the other was at the security gate at the entrance to the airport. Authorities said no bombs exploded within the airport building itself, according to the minister — A Turkish official told CNN that police fired shots at suspects near the international terminal in an effort to neutralize them. -
