A survivor has told of the chaos, panic and fear inside the blood-smeared terminal following the co-ordinated attack on Istanbul airport, as tributes begin to pour in for the 41 victims of the deadly assault.
Laurence Cameron had only just landed as the three suicide bombers went on their deadly rampage through Ataturk Airport last night, shooting anyone who got in their way, before detonating their deadly loads and engulfing the terminal in the flames.
By the time he stepped into the terminal, those who had escaped their bombs and bullets were fleeing for their lives.
'It must have been just as we touched down,' he told MailOnline. 'I did not even hear the explosions, but as I walked out and round the corner, the whole building was running screaming towards me.
'It was just mass panic, guards running around with guns.'
