Islamic State prime suspect after suicide bombers kill 41 at Istanbul airport
By Ayla Jean Yackley and Humeyra Pamuk | ISTANBUL
(Reuters) - Turkish investigators pored over video footage and witness statements on Wednesday after three suspected Islamic State suicide bombers opened fire and blew themselves up in Istanbul's main airport, killing 41 people and wounding 239.
The attack on Europe's third-busiest airport was the deadliest in a series of suicide bombings this year in Turkey, part of the U.S.-led coalition against Islamic State and struggling to contain spillover from neighboring Syria's war.
President Tayyip Erdogan said the attack should serve as a turning point in the global fight against terrorism, which he said had "no regard for faith or values". U.S. President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin condemned it in separate phone calls with Erdogan, his office said.
Five Saudis and two Iraqis were among the dead, a Turkish official said. Citizens from China, Jordan, Tunisia, Uzbekistan, Iran and Ukraine were also among the 13 foreigners killed.
One attacker opened fire in the departures hall with an automatic rifle, sending passengers diving for cover and trying to flee, before all three blew themselves up in or around the arrivals hall a floor below, witnesses and officials said.
Video footage showed one of the attackers inside the terminal building being shot, apparently by a police officer, before falling to the ground as people scattered. The attacker then blew himself up around 20 seconds later.
"It's a jigsaw puzzle ... The authorities are going through CCTV footage, witness statements," a Turkish official said.

今回取り上げるのは、"pore over"という表現です。
文脈的に、「調べる、確認する」などの意味がありそうです。
LDOCEで調べてみると、"pore over something"で"to read or look at something very carefully for a long time"とありました。
『ジーニアス英和辞典』第4版(大修館)でも確認してみると、「(本、書類など)をじっくり見る、熟読する、打ち込む、熱中する[over, through]」や「(事を)じっくり考える、熟考する[over, on, upon]」とありました。
したがってここでは、「トルコ警察は監視カメラや目撃情報を元に慎重な取り調べを行っている」となるかと思います。(Akim)
