Australia today condemned the terror attack at Turkey's Ataturk International Airport that left 36 people dead, saying such assaults are reminder that ISIS terrorists seek to destroy and divide people.
"This is a very sad day for the people who love freedom, as we do and the Turkish people do," Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull told reporters in Sydney.
"It is very important in times like this Australians stay united and recognise that our successful multicultural society is built on a strong foundation of mutual respect."
The bombings were a reminder Islamist terrorists sought to "destroy, divide and kill" Muslims, Christians and others of non-Muslim faith, he said.
Turnbull promised to 'work relentlessly' with security agencies to keep Australians safe, while renewing his commitment to destroying the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
