Germans got involved in the investigation process of Istanbul blast - three Russian citizens detained

Turkish authorities have detained three Russian nationals suspected of Islamic State links after the Istanbul bombing. 

Police in the Mediterranean city of Antalya also seized documents and CDs during a search of the premises where the suspects were staying, the agency said. It was not immediately clear when the detentions occurred.

In Germany the Justice Minister Heiko Maas said today, Wednesday that the security situation in Germany had not changed after the suicide attack that killed at least 10 people, mainly German tourists, in Istanbul on Tuesday.

“We know Germany is also a target for terrorists and so a general danger certainly cannot be denied but at the moment there are no concrete indications of attack targets but the authorities are very, very alert,” he told broadcaster ARD.
