Per French media: 700 to 800 people in the nightclub at the time of the attack. Some witnesses report hearing perp/s “shouting something in Arabic”.

Yup, it’s like someone turned off a spigot. And not just in Turkey.

took place in the Reina nightclub, in the Ortakoy area, at about 01:30 local time (23:30 GMT).

...

Dogan news agency reported that some witnesses claimed the attackers were "speaking Arabic"

Well, seeing these were likely kids of rich Westerners, and the toll is likely to rise substantially, this could start a regional war without JfnK to broker the peace.

RIP to the fallen.

Yep. Information freeze.

There were a couple of now deleted tweets saying up to 100 dead.

If it’s an ongoing op I understand though. Last we heard one or more gumen still firing in the club.

Per French language media outlet: 3 or 4 perps, a dozen of the wounded in grave condition, and some people jumped into the Bosphorus trying to escape the perp/s.

Still no “official” mention of the race or faith of the perps,we’d better not jump to conclusions!
