Turkish authorities say they have arrested eight suspects in connection with a nightclub shooting in Istanbul that killed 39 people.


Investigators are piecing together a portrait of the gunman who opened fire in a popular Istanbul nightclub just after midnight on New Year's Eve.

 

The man is believed to have links to the so-called Islamic State militant group, which has now claimed reponsibility for the attack.
