The mass shooting at an İstanbul nightclub on New Year's Eve was carried out professionally with the involvement of an intelligence organisation, Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmuş said on Monday.
"It appears the Reina attack is not just a terrorist organisation's act, but there was also an intelligence organisation involved. It was an extremely planned and organised act," Kurtulmus said during an interview.
39 people were killed, including more than 20 foreigners, almost 70 were injured as a result of the attack. A manhunt is underway. The Islamic State terrorist group has taken responsibility for the attack.
