Russian Ambassador to Turkey Assassinated At Ankara Photo Exhibition [Photos/Video]

This is likely to be the saddest thing most of us have seen this year and i wonder how his family will forever live with this, seeing their father/brother/uncle being shot dead life in a broadcast.

So the Russian ambassador to Turkey was murdered this evening in an ‘assassination attempt’ – that was allegedly carried out in retaliation for the crisis in Aleppo, Andrey Karlov was shot in the back as he made a speech at a photo exhibition in the Turkish capital.

Before opening fire on Andrei Karlov the gunman reportedly shouted in Turkish: “We die in Aleppo, you die here”, then continued shouting allahu akbar several times.  At least three others were injured in the attack during the ambassador’s speech at an art gallery in the Turkish capital Ankara.

Mr Karlov was rushed to hospital in a critical condition but died soon after.

The attacker, who is believed to be a police officer, fired a shot into the air as the ambassador spoke and then shot him. The video and more photos below…
